If you are using cpanel then you can easily add cron job being a beginner too.
You can add cron job in cpanel (https://hoststud.com/resources/how-to-add-a-cron-job-in-cpanel.201/) easily.

Hello Fli,

I hope you are doing well!

The usual method for running PHP files by a cron job is to use a command-line program such as wget or curl. For example, the cron job will run a command alike the following command:

curl http://example.com/script.php

In the above command, the curl retrieves the web page, which then executes the PHP file. You can also run the PHP file directly by using the PHP command-line interpreter. This method is just as effective and usually more faster. You can run the PHP file with the below command,

php -q ${HOME}/public_html/script.php

If you have cPanel access, you can easily set up the cron job and schedule your task to run your PHP files. To run the PHP files, you must set this up using cPanel's cron jobs feature.
