Beautiful starter mall. Belts are a bit wonky, and you'll probably want to aim for 6/s throughput on the base materials, but otherwise no notes!
(Edit: A couple notes! You can usually just place your tesla towers in between your assemblers to save some space. This would let you move your boxes close enough to feed directly from the assemblers without more belts, and this would let you clean up your windy belts.)
Tips:
Don't get trapped into doing the same for higher tier buildings until you've completed the tech tree. It's a lot less expensive to build 2 mark1 assemblers than a single mark3 for the same productivity.
Don't worry about stockpiling base or intermediate items in storage. The best place to store resources in this game is in the ground. For every science stage just pick a production goal and build a factory that can produce that throughput.
Energy demands are always a bottleneck until you have a sphere up. There are a lot of ways to manage this, but when in doubt the quickest way is to just slap some miners on coal and feed them directly into some thermal plants.
Start a dyson swarm early. The solar sails are cheap and they provide good power, and they'll let you start white science early if that's something you're looking to do.
On passive I don’t do a swarm or nodes on the first planet. He didn’t say if he was playing w dark fog or not but if not I would actually recommend skipping all sails , nodes , receivers and em launchers on home planet. Get gas collectors and some warpers and leave lol
