I really want to start getting into making bracelet patterns and was curious if any of yโ€™all have any advice? Or recommendations on the best way to go about making them. Does anyone use another website to design patterns?

Here are some useful tutorials for designing patterns:

For designing my alpha patterns, I use a pixel art app called dotpict. I use it, because it is much easier to move things around. Apart from that I don't use other apps.

For learning how to design alpha patterns, I recommend looking into pixel art. There are many good beginner tutorials on YouTube.

Pixilart is another good option for alpha patterns. It's online, so you don't have to download an app or program, but they do also have an app, if you prefer that.
