This isn't the right place to ask, seeing that this subforum is for game suggestions
Anyways, you could either summon King Slime or the Eye of Cthulhu. The Eater of Worlds/Brain of Cthulhu is a bit hard imo, and don't bother with Skeletron until you get good gear.
King Slime needs a Gold/Platinum Crown and a number of gel (99 iirc?)
Eye of Cthulhu needs 6 lens
All of the above needs the Demon Altar to craft

20 gel for non old gen stuff, so 1.3 20, 1.2 99

Oh...... well I gues you know now, glad they changed it, although gel isn’t a problem

adding on to that, sometimes bosses can spawn by itself! There will be different messages on your screen for when bosses are about to summon. for example, if the eye of cthulhu is about to spawn, you'll get a text on your screen saying " You feel an evil presence watching you..." and then later the boss will spawn.
you should probably go on the terraria wiki to find out more about bosses and which ones are easier to fight: Bosses

I personally, go for King Slime. You could go for the eye as well. I just like doing it the "right way". The slime mount is also helpful for the other boss fights you do after slime.

King slime is always the first boss I fight in a playthrough because it contains the slime mount which I use for pre hardmode and the beginning of hardmode

Threads that are offtopic show up in this section daily, the only reason you haven't seen them is because people normally report them and get them moved to the right section faster than you realize. It's better to just report them rather than try to tell everyone who does it. There's so many new users who misuse this section that trying to tell them just isn't worth it.
Anyway, I recommend fighting the Brain of Cthulhu/Eater of Worlds by breaking Crimson Hearts/Shadow Orbs in the Crimson/Corruption. The Eye of Cthulhu and King Slime don't really get you anything too beneficial to work with, and don't really progress the game, contrary to popular belief. Unless you're in expert mode, which you sound like a new player so you probably aren't.

Technically you can fight any pre-hardmode boss as the first boss as you like, including Wall of Flesh.
King Slime and Eye of Cthulhu are the easiest and provide useful item to increase mobility, thus are recommended.
In addition to summoning items, King Slime will appear if you kill enough slimes during a slime rain event, and the Eye will arrive once you have 200 hp and 10 defense

Probably the support section. The mods actually have moved it there for you already.
