I don't wat to discourage you in any way but, you will have to climb several steps.

I am a professional developer but I never did VR neither gaming stuff. I do have an interest but I also know that I will have to acquire many additional skills, especially to work with new tools and assets needed to create (more than just a demo) VR app.

You need:

  • To familiarize with basic coding and chose a language (C# being a good one for it's simplicity and power).
  • Identify a development environment (for compiling and testing your stuff).
  • Familiarize yourself with the additional VR tools.

Meta does have a nice portal where you can start to explore. It is here:
Resources (oculus.com)

Let's be frank, it's unlikely to be an easy ride. Enjoy!
