I’m still confused by the different versions of HA. Does that version include all of the features? Or is it the basic install that’s easiest to install?

Yes home assistant green comes preinstalled with everything you need, you can use addons, etc. Just buy it, plug it in and start going. There aren't really "basic" and "advanced" versions of HA. There's just some that have addons and others where you do the addons yourself as docker containers. But all of them have the same HA features.
