Hello there!  
As 'standalone' you mean one, single node?

In `/etc/elasticsearch/elasticsearch.yml` please use `discovery.type` as 'single-node`.  
In KIbana config file you have to point to Elasticsearch host and port.  
Will you use filebeat, logstash, metricbeat and so on?

1. Setup your elasticsearch,
2. Setup your kibana,
3. Setup your filebeat.
