Just turned 18 in the uk and I want to make investment a habit

I’ve turned 18 today and I can obviously now control my own finances and use my money for a lot of things. I hardly know anything about the world of personal finance and investment but it’s something I want to build a habit of for my future self. I made this post to basically ask what I should be learning, how to learn about it and what I should be doing now and what app/website I should be using. I’ve heard index funds like the ftse 100 are a good way to go for long term gain and was wondering if that’s something I should do. I thought (to begin with), I should just do £50 for a while whilst I learn about it all.

Thanks
