How I design a project from schematic, through PCB and getting the parts for final construction

So you're an Arduino project maker noob? Feeling a bit overwhelmed by it all? Where to start? What could possibly go wrong?
I describe what I do to maximise project success, from the schematic (circuit diagram), the PCB and obtaining all the parts, using my Smart Heater Controller that I'm building for my workshop as an example.
► 20mm Glass Fuse holder (240v 1A) https://rarecomponents.com/store/blx-a
► XE1201 snubber (and datasheet) https://cpc.farnell.com/unbranded/xe1201/filter-xe1201-pcb-mount/dp/CA06043?ost=xe1201 https://www.dem-uk.com/roxburgh/Data/Product_Downloads/roxburgh-xe1201-rc-network-pcb-data.pdf
► Myrra 47000 series electronic transformers (PSU) (I'm using the TF01451) https://cpc.farnell.com/myrra/47246/power-supply-4w-5vdc-12vdc-reg/dp/TF01451?st=mryya%2047000%20series https://www.farnell.com/datasheets/606238.pdf
► Multicomp Pro miniature power relay (12v/16A @ 240v) and datasheet https://cpc.farnell.com/multicomp/hrm2-s-dc12v/relay-spdt-250vac-12vdc-16a/dp/SW05896 https://www.farnell.com/datasheets/1318173.pdf
► Waterproof Plastic Electronic Box Enclosure, Case Cover, Various Sizes https://www.banggood.com/custlink/GGGR0reFEr
► ESP32 Mini (dual row of pins, not the easiest to use) from the UK warehouse, 1 week delivery https://www.banggood.com/custlink/333R6SWhs6
► An easier to use ESP32 Dev Board, half the price too (when bought from China)
