Get some wood
Use your axe to chop down some trees.
Plant acorns!
A tree will eventually grow in the place where you have planted your acorn
Build your house above the ground
It's good to make your house above the ground to prevent any monsters from getting in and slaughtering your npcs.
Place down a workbench (it can be made using 10 wood)
To place down the green thing (Rope) you will need to destroy some pots, they can be found everywhere around the world.
Make a hammer
It's useful for destroying misplaced walls and sloping blocks
Do the same thing like on the picture.
Block sloping.
You can make a hammer using wood when standing near a workbench and then hit blocks to slope them
Oh no night time!
Keep you and your guide safe.
Guide is a very useful npc for new players, he can tell you what can you craft with certain materials or even give you tips. If you don't have a house by the time night comes place blocks around you and your guide so mobs cannot attack both of you.
Don't try to fight monsters when it's night time.
You should avoid trying to fight monsters at night, it's very easy to die for unexperienced players
Stars, they fall from the sky when it's night time.
You can craft very useful stuff with stars but remember, going out at night can be dangerous if you do not have good weapons.
Mana stars. Use 5 stars to craft 1 mana star.
Mana stars increase your mana by 20, max mana is 200. but you can have even more mana with armor, accessories or buffs
Lens, they drop from Demon eyes
Demon eyes are a type of mob that spawns when it's night time, they are hard to kill since they fly around but they have a chance to drop lens if you kill them. You can later use lens to craft an item to summon Eye of Cthulhu boss
Night is over, back to the building.
When night is over we can safely go back to building, do the same thing as shown on the images
Making roof, and second floor
Platforms can be turned into stairs by pressing CTRL which will enable auto building, or hammering the platform when you placed it down.
Use chair and table for NPCs to settle in.
Wooden walls can be made by the workbench. For npcs to come to your house you need a chair, table and a light source. Torches can be made with gel dropped by slimes and some wood, it doesn't matter where you place them in the house.
Finished house
Merchant, he can be your second NPC. Don't worry he won't steal your robux!
Merchant will probably be the first npc that comes to your house besides the guide, you can buy useful stuff from him like anvil, torches, piggy bank (where you can store your money), and a mining helmet (good for exploring the underground because it provides light)
With your house finished you can go and explore the world!
You can find pyramids in the desert with awesome gear in them
There is no guarantee that a pyramid will spawn in your world so don't be surprised if you don't find any
Besides the Pharaoh vanity, that is not awesome gear
Healing potions and dangerous biomes.
Healing potions can drop from breaking pots or they can be bought from the merchant. Try avoiding crimson (red) and corruption (purple) biomes, they are very dangerous and going there without proper equipment is quite reckless. There's also the jungle also pretty dangerous place but can be very rewarding for exploring it. To use a healing potion press H when you're hurt Healing potions can drop from breaking pots or they can be bought from the merchant.

Underground houses.
They spawn underground and you can find in them a golden chest, some cobweb and some other stuff. Remember to collect the chests once you looted them.
You can buy anvil from merchant, and make furnace using 20 stone some wood and torches.
Furnace allows you to turn ores into bars and then craft weapons with those bars by the anvil.
Make a trap door with 4 iron bars and some wood
Iron can be found underground or even on surface, to make 4 iron bars you will need 12 iron ore and a furnace to smelt it
Place chests you've collected in your house
you can store items in them
Thank you for reading my guide and have fun playing Terraria!
