If you just want something simple that does the job, you can try a turnkey solution like YunoHost. There's several other ones out there. Some with containers, some with more or less pre-packaged software... If you want to learn more during the process, maybe don't and do it yourself because these things don't teach you a lot. There's some resources like the awesome-selfhosted list in the sidebar of this community. But I think for installing services you'd mainly look at the specific documentation of the specific service you're just about to tackle. And maybe read up on Docker containers etc to judge whether you want to do it that way.
