Depends on what sort of underlying file system you want to use on the drive. For Linux filesystems (ext4, btrfs, zfs etc), here’s a good start: https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Dm-crypt

Bitlocker is only redumentary included in the cheaper Windows “Home” versions
only the “Pro” version actually includes proper Bitlocker tools which is frankly a pretty stupid move
