Beginner needs help with building Interior Wood Doors

I'm finishing a renovation of my weekend lake cottage and want to
replace the hideous, plastic hollow core doors with something that has
clean lines and character.

Can anyone point me to online instructions for building simple
interior doors? I'm thinking board and batten or tounge&groove...
something someone with *basic* woodworking tools can pull off.... I'll
likely be painting these doors, so fancy joinery isn't necessary.
Also, I can rely on mechanical fasteners since I'll be painting.

Thanks!!!

Note that the hinges should go on the LHS of the ledged and braced door
shown.
