Well you should start by buying some wires and switches. Then Grok-chan will handhold you through everything you could ever possibly want to know.

looks like that kit comes with wires and switches and stuff like that. and a book to get you going.
what the fuck are you even asking?

A soldering iron. A Hakko FX-888DX is a great beginners iron. It is a little pricy for a starter but it is rock solid and doesn't cycle temps like cheaper irons. You set it at a temp and it fucking stays there until you finish the job or burn your house down.

A multimeter. Anything not the cheapest shit available will do you. You want it to be able to test voltages, the values of resistors, continuity, that kind of shit. Make sure it uses standard leads so you can acquire different types for it as your needs change or you break them.

Don't buy those kits that come with a bunch of random components like your picture. You won't use half of them. Find a project you like and buy what you need for it. Maybe is a guitar pedal, maybe its an arcade stick, whatever.

If you buy cheap components off of Amazon, eBay, or Ali Express expect them to be out of spec. Test them with your multimeter. A resistor might be rated at 10k plus or minus 5% but really be plus or minus 15%. Take that into account when you order. If your project states it has to be within a certain spec you should either buy one tier better (like 1%) or expect to have to test a bunch of your resistor with the meter to make sure they are in spec.

Please like Mouser or Digikey sell the real deal at decent prices. Places like Adafruit sell to dumbasses that don't price check.

I'm guessing you are larping and won't do shit. Come back in a week and show you actually took some advice here.

>Hakko FX-888DX

Outdated garbage and comically overpriced.
Get something with modern tips with build in heater and sensor for half the price.

SEQURE S99 is like 30 bucks, original JBC tips 20 bucks (they last forever).
150W power.

Back when I was in school after the initial primer of basic electronic theories and generic component identification you'd start with the classic projects:
>555 timer to make a LED flash with a potentiometer to control the speed
>LM386 audio amplifier with an electret microphone as the input
>transistor H bridge to control a DC motor
>binary counter with a 7 segment display output
>TTL logic gate chips to take a bunch of inputs and produce an output

These days everything is done with microcontrollers, no one uses discrete parts anymore like timer chips and logic gates. Your best bet is to buy an arduino kit that comes with some projects to do. Electronics as a hobby is kind of dead IMO though, microcontrollers made it too easy, just have them drive transistors and buy whatever power supplies or DC-DC converters you need for your loads.

Get an as you overpriced junk

Here's a project for you.
Make a digital spinning wheel. LED go in circle until you release the button. It stops at that point.
Figure out the tools you'll need and components.
Go from there.
I had this project back in middle school.

Losing braincells by breathing in soldering fumes is how to know you've hit the apex of autism. Only the most stronk among us can reach these autistic heights.

If you're looking to buy parts like those, Ebay is the place to go.

just start with those boards where plug stuff in to make lights flash, motors spin, and start working your way up. Watch some vids on basic printed circuit board design. When I was taking high school electronics we used a pen to draw on boards then the acid batch, drilling holes and soldering. Now you can use software and send the plan to a business that will make it for you and mail it to you, so you can design some prettry good custom stuff. There are endless combos of computers and custom circuitry you can do, but start small and get the hang of it and find websites and other sources you like.
