I think you should play few games at the beginning and focus on doing a lot of puzzles.
Make sure you know how to mate with a lone queen or a lone rook, and do basic king and pawn endgames. Then pick an opening repertoire, calm and easy to play, with not so much theory.
I will advise you the colle-system or the london system for white, the queen's gambit declined against d4 c4, and the philidor defence or the caro-kann against e4
I do not agree with the advice to not read books--juist use books at your level.
Also a new player should not try to develop his own opening. A new player needs to use an established opening But for sure-=-learn opening principles.
Also trying to develop a style is advanced--not something a new player shouild do.
A new player should not try and develop "a style" That is an advanced situation.
