Create an ORCID — a free, persistent researcher identifier.
Install Zotero — it creates references and bibliographies across Word, LibreOffice, and Google Docs.
Pick and start organizing files with OneDrive / Dropbox.
Note-taking apps and a tablet for classes and planning.
Learn/decide if you'll use Overleaf (LaTeX) for your projects (I personally prefer not to, because of submission issues).
