I'd really love to start making something, even if it's basic. Any tips on where to start? Tools, wood, etc?

I sprang for a starrett combination square when I began my woodworking journey and it's probably the single most useful tool I own.

It's not necessary to have a square that precise, but knowing one part of the process is dead square is handy for figuring out where error comes from when there are issues
