## Short Overview

The following order should be followed when configuring FlyingFish for the first time:

1. The installation is finished.
2. Check [Listen](/flyingfish/index/configurations/listen.md), with standard installation there is nothing further to do here.&#x20;
3. Setup [port forwarding](/flyingfish/index/configurations/listen/port-forwarding.md).
4. Add your [domains](/flyingfish/index/configurations/domains.md).
5. Set up your domain from the domain provider.
6. Add your [routes](/flyingfish/index/configurations/routes.md).

## On the topic
