What are you going to be doing in there?
For a home office type space you need to think about how you insulate. But if it's just a shed/workshop I don't think you need to go overboard. Personally I'd grab a load of that silver bubble wrap and maybe sheet the inside if you want it to look nice. Then make sure there is ventilation.
(this is what I will do eventually)
If you can give up the height you can also get quite thin combi hardboard and insulation floor.

I build guitars as a side hustle, and it's main use will be as my workshop for that.
Ideally I'd like to get to a position where I could leave my wood / work in progress in there without their moisture content changing too much, but I don't think I'll ever get there with the cheap /small shed that I'm starting with.
However, I do definitely want to stop my planes and chisels from getting dew forming on them, which means that the temperature can't be allowed to drop too low. That means that I'll definitely have a heater on a thermostat, and given that I feel therefore I should insulate it as much as possible to keep the running costs low.
It'll also help with not annoying the neighbours with keeping the noise down at the weekend.
I'm almost certainly overthinking it, just that since I'm setting up a new shed now and I won't be doing this again in the next ten years I want to do it in the correct way.
edit: Hardboard sheets are a good call for the walls / ceiling. I'll likely use that, with some ply for the main wall that I'll hang tools off

Thanks for replying. You're is a great size, mine's going to be a lot smaller - just about big enough to fit a guitar on the workbench I'll build.
I had a heater / thermostat set up in the last one which I'll reuse, just want to make sure I'm not allowing the insulation (which might be wool, maybe PIR) to get damp from trapping condensation in the wrong places.
