I did the same thing recently with a Dell dock, works amazingly well. Has its own power brick though.

Caldigit TS3+ is pretty good, supports my 5K2K display as well as another one with 1920x1200 res, plus power delivery, with a single cable.
You could also go with a thunderbolt compatible display with an integrated USB hub, that way with a single cable you can have the display and USB (as well as sound) for the webcam/keyboard and hopefully power too, as most of those also have power delivery.

I got this instead of the caldigit, which was out of my price range.

Currently have a 1920x1080 hp monitor connected via hdmi, run laptop power into it, and charge my MacBook Pro through it, also have my wacom tablet via usb running though it as well and still have two usb c ports and another USB port free to plug stuff into..
It’s been fine for the 6mths or so I’ve had it.

USB C / Thunderbolt hub recommendations?
I'm attempting to run my MacBook Pro with a monitor, keyboard, trackpad and webcam. However, with only two USB-C ports on the MacBook, is it just easier to have the monitor/charging in one port and the webcam in the other? Or would there be a benefit of getting a hub to connect everything together?
