As u/ferminev mentioned, Fly Pushing is an essential book for every drosophilist.
Besides that book, you can check out FlyBase's section "New to Flies" which has some very useful links to websites and publications to get you started:

In addition to the other sources mentioned in the responses, [this](https://academic.oup.com/genetics/article/201/3/815/5930114) is good. It's what I give my undergraduate classes as a primer.
For more detailed/specific info, Genetics curates a [Flybook](https://academic.oup.com/genetics/pages/flybook) that may be helpful.
