It doesn't have to be difficult.

  1. Download keepass to your computer.

  2. Keep the save file on a USB or private cloud backup.

  3. Done!

As you get more comfortable with it, you'll start using it in more complex ways. Like having a phone app, connected to a self hosted network. But keep it simple for now.
