Newbie here: Trying to update from KitKat to Marshmallow

I have an AT&T HTC One M8 running KitKat, but I want to convert to stock Dev Edition and run Marshmallow, ridding of AT&T's bloatware.
I already have S-Off, but the bootloader is locked. I believe I now have to unlock my bootloader / root.
Next is changing to the Developer's Edition carrier ID (CID). My current CID is AT&T's CWS_001
Lastly, I'll have to run the Dev Edition RUU, which I don't know where to get.

As I am quite new to all of this, there are terminologies that I have an idea as to what they mean, but may not fully understand. Such as Recoveries and flashing SU. (Sorry for being a noob.)

So as you can see, I have this general outline of what I think I may need to do. But since I actually do not know how to do any of them, I basically am in need of a guide. Right now, I just want someone to inform to me if I'm missing any crucial step(s)!
In the meanwhile, I've already bookmarked a link that will guide me with unlocking the bootloader and I think that's what I should be doing right now. I'll let you guys know how that goes. Thanks!
