Whether you're looking for a site to help you master the stroke order, or if you're trying to compare characters across different languages, here are some useful sources for character explanations, radical breakdowns, actual examples, character evolutions from Warring States up until now, and many other interesting options.
This one is pretty good for character explanation, radical breakdown and examples e.g. where this character can be found, in what text etc. Only thing to note is that while you can change the interface language to English, the actual explanation is in Traditional Chinese, so something to keep in mind. https://dict.variants.moe.edu.tw/
2. Good for a phonetic breakdown of a character, including Hanyu, Hakka, Yale, Wade etc. Includes different fonts for comparison, and even a calligraphy option which makes me quite happy. https://www.cns11643.gov.tw/
3. Also good for showing the character stroke order and in-depth examples from actual literary works. Includes explanations from Kangxi and 说文解字 -Shuowen Jiezi (the original Han dynasty dictionary showing the actual seal script characters), so quite useful all in all. https://www.zdic.net/
漢典 | 漢語字典, 漢語詞典, 康熙字典, 說文解字, 音韻方言, 字源字形, 異體字
4. Baidu. Self-explanatory but honestly very useful. Just input the character and an entire page dedicated to this character will pop-up.
5. This also includes the same features as other sources e.g. character stroke order, pronounciation, radical breakdown etc, but what is particularly handy here is the option to compare the same character between Mainland, Taiwanese, Hong Kong, Japanese and Korean characters: https://hanzi.unihan.com.cn/CJKCompare
6. Fantastic for showing the evolution of characters, from Warring States Period to the current font, not to mention the different pronounciations available. Highly recommend. https://zi.tools/
7. Includes the standard radical breakdown and examples, but also the pronounciation of the characters using various different dialects in Taiwan, which is quite interesting as up until now I didn't find any sources that included this. https://pedia.cloud.edu.tw/
8. This is more so for Oracle Bone and Bronze script characters, which are honestly quite fasinating. Definitely a favourite database of mine. The explanations are written in Traditional Chinese but mostly in relatively straightforward language so using a translation software is no issue. https://humanum.arts.cuhk.edu.hk/Lexis/lexi-mf/
I have paused my diary briefly due to grief, as two dear family members have passed away recently. I hope to resume my learning next week, and I will give an update as to what I'm making for 春节!

Sacramento was a blast! If 你 ever have the chance to go to Hidden Dumpling House [ 2801 P St, Sacramento, CA 95816 ] in Midtown, 我 highly recommend it! It's served family style ^^
我 also went to the Crocker Art Museum 和我的家人在一起, 10/10 fantastic experience.
和 of course, 我和我的家人 went to IKEA, Daiso, and some thrift stores~
-----
Today 我 decluttered the upstairs hall closets as well as 我的卧室 (which was done a bit before 新年) + went through all the movies and games downstairs. So now there are 9 trash bags full of stuff to donate after the full trunk of donations from cleaning up in December OwO
Keep in mind that 我的房子 has 5 people in it and several pets, so it can accumulate items quickly (ᵕ—ᴗ—)
我 have gotten a lot of stuff done to prepare for 大学 admissions this coming fall! 我 updated 我的 residency because they had it wrong, got VA benefit stuff mostly sorted out, sent an email to try and meet with an academic advisor to plan and enroll in classes, submitted 我的 immunization records, and now 我 just have to get 我的 Tetanus/Diphtheria vaccine because 我 haven't gotten one in the last 10 years, and the 学校 needs an updated one (it is scheduled for next week). 我 also have a meeting next week with the 大学 Disability Resource Center to go over accommodations and such ^^
Tomorrow 我 am going to Sacramento 和我的家人! Gonna be gone all weekend~
Today, a realtor came by the house to see how much it might be worth and a couple other things. When 她 got to 我的卧室, 她 asked "How old is the little girl in this room?" 还有我爸爸 laughed. 我是 a 23 year old man😭
我 just like plushies and Hatsune Miku 和 decorated accordingly...
------------
This upcoming weekend 我将在 in Sacramento! 我将有机会 KP International Market, Daiso, 和 Ikea amongst other activities ^^
Today, 我 went to one of my local Asian markets to do some shopping, and 我 recognized "草莓"!! 我 bought both a 草莓 yogurt drink (that 我 have had before) and also some 草莓 Oreos from 中国 that 我 am excited to try!
-------
For these diaries, 我 want to use 我的 target language as much as possible! So as 我学习 more, 我 will use more and more characters instead of English ^^
我今天学习了! I'm learning more characters and how they form words, which is really exciting. For instance, words with "学" are related to studying and learning, so even if I don't know the word, I know what it's related to!
学习 = Study
学生 = Student
学校 = School
Isn't that cool? It has the same sort of concept as root words, prefixes, and suffixes in English. Like, how words with "-itis" at the end indicate inflammation in the medical world (EX: Dermatitis, Bronchitis, Arthritis).

I've been studying some basic characters lately, mostly by thinking, "huh, I wonder what this word is in Chinese," then looking up the stroke order and practicing it in my huge red notebook. Today I'm going to do that, but also put the hanzi and pinyin on sticky notes for the furniture around my room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My mom did that when I was little, but with English, so like our bookcase would have "Bookcase" on it from her label maker. She would also read books like The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes and The Chronicles of Narnia as bedtime stories, and when there was a word we didn't know, she would bring out the dictionary and show us how to find the word.
----------------
I was reading chapter books by age 6 (thanks hyperlexia!), and now I tend to speak like I'm in an old detective novel lol. I would get in trouble on spelling tests as a kid for using the UK spelling instead of the USA spelling for some words because of how much Sherlock Holmes I was reading >u<
