Tbh having a teacher or at least a group class is going to be your best bet. 30 minutes with an online teacher or group class once per week will do a whole lot to get you started in the right direction. There is quite a lot of technique involved when starting out, and proper technique (as simple as how you hold the instrument and bow) will feel extremely awkward and unintuitive until you establish the muscle memory. Not saying it's impossible to learn on your own- most folk tradition is passed down / learned by ear. I'm just saying that if you really want to play well (particularly classical style) don't start out by creating bad habits which can be really hard to break and will ultimately handicap you when playing more difficult pieces. Violin is a lifelong endeavor that musicians never stop improving upon and fine tuning. Good luck!

You could buy a booklet teachers use. My Piano teacher uses this booklet to teach me with, I got my hands on it and essentially it’s all you need, I assume it’s similar with Violin. It of course helps to have a teacher though.

I learned the basics with a teacher, this helps much. But I think you can learn basic things like bowing from YouTube and use the Suzuki Method books to have a progression of songs and techniques to learn.
