Great looking board - for your use case (playing at home/practicing) it should be great. That is a nice basic set of pedals too! But a tip as you get started

Great looking board - for your use case (playing at home/practicing) it should be great. That is a nice basic set of pedals too!
But a tip as you get started on your guitar gear journey:
1. DO NOT go on the gear board - it will just get you to spend money on stuff you really don't need. I would avoid it until you are at whatever proficiency level you have set for your self.
2. Seriously consider a multi-fx as a way to try many types of effects - so you get an idea of what they do, and how they might interact with each other.
3. And the most important advise - tone is in the hands! 99% of the time, that new flavor of the month distortion/overdrive won't make you a better player, it will just drain your wallet.
After spending thousands on pedals and pedalboards (boards, cables, power supplies, etc.) I sold all of my pedals and basically use a Helix Effects, a boss TU-3 Tuner and a OneSpot CS6 power supply on a Pedaltrain Metro 16. Does everything I need. And will do everything I ever need to in the future or am capable of doing. Total cost of complete setup? $875. Sounds like a lot, but I spent more than $5,000+ over the years on pedals, boards, cables,power supplies. Gear Acquisition Syndrome (GAS) is a real problem for guitar players - so beware.
Welcome to the life long tone chase!
