What should I do first? Offense or defense or stuff in the shop..
Defenses: Build everything new you get, prioritize upgrading air defenses (especially for war) and teslas (highest dps at TH8).
Other buildings: get new dark drill to 3 asap, it's pretty good to have both up and working full power.
Offense: if you want to war full power as soon as possible, get Hogs to 3 then 4, wizs to 5, unlock golem and pekka
That depends on how seriously you take wars.
From that perspective go dragon, heal, then hogs 3&4 in your lab as you're used to using drags and it's only 1 upgrade to carry you through into mid th8 warring.
As far as defences go, you won't believe how long it's going to take you to max your teslas at th8. Keep a builder going on one of those constantly!
The other buildings that are going to make a big difference in how much loot you lose when you get raided are storages. I'd get these up asap too.
I know it sounds like strange advice, but your best defence at th8 is a lack of easy to get to loot ;)
-Late/Mid th8 with a LOT of research left to do :/
Ps: the poison spell is still pretty useful so maybe go lab-dark spell factory- storages with 1 builder too
Dragons to 3, Lightning to 5 and unlock Earthqake. You can easily 3-star most max TH8s base designs with 10 Drag + 5 CC Loons (2 light, 1 rage/heal, 1 earthquake).
