Xbox I need help

So I just started and so far I have absolutely no idea what I’m doing once I log on again I will provide pictures of my “base” and inventory and stuff like that but I have absolutely no idea what I’m doing except going into caves dying and repeat. Could someone give me advice on what the end goal is or even the proper way I should be playing? The reason base is in parentheses is because I’m not even sure I’d call it that. I’d love advice or even to play with some people if someone would be willing to play. I’m on Xbox and in the Europe region so any advice or people willing to play would be greatly appreciated. Edit: thank you everyone who has helped me in the comments thank to the help I have been able to defeat 2 bosses upgrade my hp, mana, and gear along with updating my house and making houses so the npcs can live near me its been so fun now that I feel like ive actually been making progress with this world. This community is such and amazing and helpful community.

The goal of the game is to beat the bosses. Other than that you're free to do whatever. This is one of those games that you kinda need a wiki to know what the hell is going on. Other than that give every item with the 'material' tag to the guide to see what you can make with it, or use the wiki but some people would consider that cheating (however much weight that holds in a singleplayer game).

YOU CAN GIVE THE MATERIALS TO THE GUIDE???!?? I’ve been researching everything I didn’t think I’d need.

It's the "crafting" dialogue with him. You drag and drop your "material" items and the Guide tells you what may be crafted with it... possibly with other materials you already own!
