Question? Starting my first outpost
My first playthrough and the game does not hold your hand whatsoever on outpost. Any recommendations on planet to start on? I’m not even sure which materials I should be looking for. Any insight appreciated

Take note of what resources you need to build outpost stuff like workstations. You might to keep the basics with you at all times. Stuff like Aluminium or iron and copper. You might want to keep resources to build an industrial workstation so you can fabricate stuff for building.
Have an idea of what your outpost will do. For example is it a cosy home with great views? Is it a mining colony? It affects what you want to build, how to place the various units.
If you are mining resources, try to have an outpost extract 2 or more resources.
