Before installing, you must install SQL and add an active directory role, so that you can create a separate user to run SharePoint and SQL.

I have already configured SQL and installed SharePoint 2016.

Let's get started,

Install the Pre-requisites. On SharePoint ISO, click Pre-requisite installer and if you are connected with the internet, it will automatically download and install all the required prerequisites.

Wait while prerequisites are getting installed.
As we can see all the prerequisites have been installed, click Finish your machine and it will restart.
After restarting the machine, we will run SharePoint Set-up. It will ask for Product key.
I have Trial key for 180 days (NQGJR-63HC8-XCRQH-MYVCH-3J3QR). Enter it and click Continue.
Installation will take some time to complete.
Once the installation completes, select Run SharePoint Product Configuration Wizard and click Close.
SharePoint Product Configuration Wizard will open. Click Next.
Click Yes.
As you are creating a new Server Farm, select Create a New Server Farm and click Next.
Enter your Ddatabase Server name and database access account. Click Next.
Enter Passphrase and remember it because we have to use it on each Server, which joins our Farm.
Best thing in SharePoint 2016 is MinRole. You can select your Server role. I have selected an Application Server role. You can select, as per your requirement.
You can change the port number, if you want. I preferred to keep it default and clicked Next.

Double check your setting and click Next.

Now, we have to wait while SharePoint 2016 is getting configured.
After completion of the configuration, it will open the page given below. Click Cancel.
Now, your SharePoint 2016 is installed and waiting for you to explore and play with it.
