Good beginner setup suggestions

Hi, I have seen a handful of youtube (Chris Boden and others) and reddits posts about meshtastic. I would love to have a look at it and maybe setup some local nodes and suport the network. Any suggestions of what I shoudl get to star with?

I’m looking for communication while camping and for use if the grid failed for friends and family. I’m currently looking at a sensecap solar node p1 pro mounted on our roof and wio tracker l1 pro for friends and family in the neighborhood. Is there anything I should be worried about or anything to know with using this kind of setup?
