The competitive programmers handbook explains it well: https://cses.fi/book/book.pdf

A modification is: You should hash with two prime moduli (1e9 + 7 and 1e9 + 9 worked for me) as one modulus is not enough to prevent collisions.

Maybe there are more precautions that I am too inexperienced to know about.

The only time I used string hashing was to solve this problem: https://mirror.codeforces.com/problemset/problem/271/D

I will suggest you these two Links for getting familiar with KMP This Video and Brlliant.org

CP-Algorithms has a nice article on string hashing: https://cp-algorithms.com/string/string-hashing.html

    CP-Algorithms explanation about KMP is also really nice. I like how they introduced step by step optimizations in the algorithm.
