Right order to flash files for treble rom's ?

HI,
I'm only referring to the unlocked bootloader situation.
For Redmi 4X (santoni) we have recovery, firmware, kernel, rom, root (magisk), gapps files. I want clean install (no backup to restore). What is the correct installation order . At this point i have 8.1 oreo rom , orangefox (3.2.3 r8.3) twrp recovery and i want to try treble rom's. Is reversible (to go back from treble to clasic rom)?
I'm guessing:
1.recovery with treble support (orangefox3.2.3 r8.3)?
2.firmware
3.kernel
4.rom
5.gapps
6.root
7.other files
Thx.

Is there any person who can help me with custom recovery and root?

Can anyone please tell the the following things, or redirect me to appropriate tutorials:
1. How to install custom recovery:
- I have question about slots, because some ask to install TWRP on inactive slots while some ask to install it on both slots.
- How to backup the stock recovery, everyone asks to reflash stock recovery in case of any problem but no one told how to backup the recovery while you are on the latest firmware while the firmwares available for download is too old.
- Do we have to install custom ROM on active slot or inactive slot?
2. Install Stock ROM after the phone is running a custom ROM
- Is it safe to flash the stock ROM using MiFlash tool if I want to go back to stock? because the only available firmware is from 2018 and is codename jasmine while the phone's codename is jasmine_sprout it will not cause any problem right?
3. Is it safe to use the All in One tool or shall I do everything manually?

For instaling twrp and custom rom.
You have everything you need here on xda, you just need to find it.
This is the best thread for newbies:
https://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-a2/how-to/guide-how-to-flash-custom-roms-stuff-t3876375
Just as an overview:
rom and twrp are flashed to inactive slot. For eg if your current slot is A, the rom and twrp will be flashed to B and this is why you need to change slot to B after flashing them. Then optionally you can flash gapps,kernel and magisk and they will be directly flashed to B.
Note:
order of flashing is rom>twrp(change slot)>gapps>kernel>magisk

Deleted OS and kernel from Mi 9T Pro

I accidentally removed my OS and kernel from my Mi 9T Pro, I have acces to TWRP and I have the phone connected to my PC. Can anyone help me re-installing the kernel so I can install a custom ROM? Thanks.
go to fastboot > Flash your full rom (select flash all) dont select lock bootloader option. after getting back on miui then install your recovery again and flash your desiered kernel and rom you want.
kernel and rom are together.
Just reflash the ROM, and you'll be fine
