Hey there and welcome!
Lets start with a few questions.
How old is he?
Which pre-packaged kit? Zoomed, exoterra? And what size understand that for a grown dragon (your dragon in a years time) will be about 1.5 foot long, the starter kits are just that and you should consider upscaling soon.
Regarding light, knowing which package you bought will answer that, you should consider that there should be a grade in the tanks environment between hot bright basking spot at around 100F and a 'cool' darker area with no direct light at around 75-85F, given that gradient in the tank he will find his own sweet spots.
He should have additional light for around 10 hours per day at least, 14 is better, remember that your tank must stay within those temp ranges all the time, 24/7/365. If you dont have one yet, get one of [these] (https://www.amazon.com/Thermometer-Non-Contact-Temperature-Instant-read-Emissivity/dp/B017SO1UY0/ref=pd_lpo_469_lp_t_4?_encoding=UTF8&amp;psc=1&amp;refRID=BJASJ8TDC86AQKM3ZCJY), seriously, go buy it now.
Apart from the energy bills the next most expensive part of keeping a dragon is food, from hatchling to 3 months the food should be entirely FRESH LIVE INSECTS, i cant over exaggerate that, at the 3 month part try offering some dark green leafs, collards are always good, take this chance now to train your lizard to eat from your hands, make sure this isn't the only time you handle him though as you dont want a lizard that sees fingers and assumes food, they can and will take a chunk out of your hand.
When it comes to what food, never feed anything to your lizard that is larger than the space between his eyes, otherwise it could cause compaction, where the digestive tract presses on the spinal cord causing a slow and unpleasant death. Now past that part, get rid of your crickets and replace them with Dubia roaches or Superworms (black soldier fly larvae). Many will deeply reccomend you starting a roach colony, you will notice crickets stink and are noisey oh and they will escape, bubia not only being the very bbest food for your lizard are terrible at being roaches, if you want to learn more about that i can make a post.
