Start by punching trees to collect wood. This is your most important first resource. Craft a crafting table by placing 4 wood planks in a 2x2 pattern.

Once you have a pickaxe, mine stone and upgrade to stone tools. Then search for coal and iron underground. Iron tools are much more durable and efficient than wooden or stone tools.
