Cycling new tank

[Landonwyeley16]

Ok so I just need someone to describe the cycling process to me very clearly because is there a difference between cycling your tank with no fish and the nitrogen cycle with fish? I don't understand I am really new and any kind of edvice is helpful thank you.

There are two ways commonly done here on AA. Fish-in with fish and fishless with pure ammonia.
