We use D&D Beyond for character sheets and dice rolling. As a DM I also use it for encounter tracking.

To play you only need a free account. I’ve purchased the full Player’s Handbook as well as Tasha’s Cauldron of Everything on D&D Beyond, along with several other sources, and have content sharing turned on so you will be able to access all of it, but it’s all optional.

When we need a map, such as for a complicated combat encounter, I use Owlbear Rodeo.
