Best learning resources for learning the Japanese language and general tips?

I've decided to try to learn Japanese as of yesterday as an only English speaking person. I know it's challenging and will probably take years til I am decent at it but I was wondering what some good resources are that maybe you have used personally and looking for general tips if anybody has any. I've started using duolingo to start learning some basic words and grammar and I have a separate app for learning hiragana and eventually katakana and kanji. Thanks for any advice!
