How to start learning Indonesian?

I am interested in Indonesian culture and want to travel to the country one day. How can I start learning Indonesian from scratch? I mean, like grammar, nouns, verbs or other basic elements of this language. I have watched some videos on YouTube but they only teach some daily dialogs, which is not so useful for me to understand how it works and learn by myself. Is there any free website or not so expensive textbook that I can get?

Get an Indonesian friend and start chatting, it's how I learned English after all. My dms is open if you want pointers & occasional convo with beginner Indonesian !
