Planning Resources for a Universal Newbie

[KSL]

Hi all!
I'm planning a trip to Universal in July (I know, I know, the heat!), to visit Islands of Adventure, Universal Studios Orlando, and Epic Universe.
I am just starting to plan, and am of course looking at Universal's website, but wondering what other online planning resources people find helpful (I'm assuming it's ok to list them here but if there's a rule about not sharing other websites then I retract my question).
One thing I'm specifically looking for is a comprehensive list of rides and attractions in each park, ideally with a brief phrase of description, so that we can plan and prioritize. If anyone knows where I could find this, I would love to know about it.
Any general advice/tips&tricks would also be amazing. I'll watch here for threads.
Thanks!

Download the universal Orlando app. It will show you everything in the parks, Citywalk. You can filter it by what you want to see.

Agree w/ @Skippyboo
If you look at the App in the morning, it'll tell you what time each show is running that day so you can extrapolate for your day. Unfortunately they don't post a show schedule per se, each day they just list the upcoming times.

Also just as an FYI, the water rides Popeyes barges & Dudley Dooright flume will get you fully drenched, to the panties. Fair warning. They're a lot of fun, just know what you're getting into.

If you're looking for some extra fun, the water cannons on the bridge above Dudley's are fantastic. There not free, but they're totally worth it in my opinion. People never see them coming as they round the corner.....good times!

If you're willing to spend money on a book The Unofficial Guide to Universal Studios is fantastic and exactly what you're looking for.
