Charging my iPhone for the first time

I'm waiting for my phone, and when I turn it on, it will have a certain percentage of battery charge, for example 68%. for the very first charging of the phone, I need to completely discharge the phone to zero, and then charge it to 100%. or is such an operation not necessary for new phones, and I can just charge when it's convenient for me? for example, I will discharge the phone to 30% and then put it to charge

I think I'm starting to understand how it works. after a few videos about batteries. I understand that there is nothing wrong with the phone charging 100% after a night with optimized battery charging, because sooner or later I will lose the charging cycle anyway? And this does not mean that I overcharged the phone, do I understand correctly? or how to understand that I have overcharged the phone? and the last question: is it better to charge the phone overnight when is below 50%? and can i use the phone while it charging? I'm asking so many questions because I've never used an iPhone and I don't want to ruin it as soon as possible
