there's so many different opinions on this.
brand means nothing really, as each brand has minimalist and super padded supportive models.
I would, personally, start with a low drop minimal padding lightweight shoe, like a nike flex.
If you can learn to run in these, it will provide a good foundation of proper form. If you find that when running in these, your ankles fall inward too much then you need to strengthen them. Getting supportive shoes will prevent you from strengthening many foot and ankle muscles.

After you have no issues with these, and you have sorted out your possible ankle problems I would say get some more padded trainers so you can give your legs a break a few days a week. Hoka one ones are good for this

A lot of what makes a running shoe good will depend on how the shoe fits your foot, how comfy it feels to run with, and the technology inside the show.
Would say either go to a running store to figure out exactly what a good show for you is, but some common shoes that a lot of people end up enjoying are ASICS Kayano, ASICS GT1000, Nike Pegasus, Brooks Ravenna, Mizuno Wave Riders, New Balance stuff, Saucony stuff, Hoka One stuff.
Cannot stress how important it is to walk/jog around a bit with these shoes before buying. Always hear great stuff about Nike Frees, but shit hurts the ball of my foot like crazy.

I never would’ve expected it but I got given a pair of Sketchers to run in and have never looked back since. I’ve had issues with recurring injuries for years playing football (soccer) and they’d always flare up if I was training for a marathon but, since I started wearing Sketchers 3-4 years ago, I haven’t had a single leg injury. It’s amazing.

thanks guys, really insightful. I think I'm gonna go start with a low drop minimal padding lightweight shoe first and see how it fits. what are some other options than Nike Flex that are in the same category? any of the one mentioned by ?

also, is there anything else that would be helpful for a beginner?

The nike free the other guy mentioned is similar, but more expensive.
If you go to a nike outlet store you can get a nike flex for 40 dollars.
I don't know of the model names for any of for other brands off the top of my head.
Just keep in mind that both minimalist and super cushiony shoes have their uses, like I said.

Nike Free are pretty popular in this category. Try before you buy though, low drop minimalist shoes seem cool, but doesnt work for everyone. Like that user said it also could give you foot pains even if you take it gradually. They feel nice to walk around with at least

and other useful things would just be to watch as many videos on form, cadence, exercises to prevent injury, post running stretching, and other things like that as you can handle.
don't run with your feet too close together, width wise.
run using your glutes mostly.
increase cadence using a metronome.
land with your feet directly under your body, don't reach in front of you with your feet. a tiny bit is ok as form varies from person to person, but just as a general rule don't go too far out there.
don't run fast. 90% of your runs should be done at such an easy pace that you can have a casual conversation with a friend.
don't run too often or too far when starting.
dont be embarrassed to run slow
I run 75mpw currently and 3 of my runs are currently at about an 845-9 minute mile pace.
look up strides, tempo runs, fartleks, repeats.
