that link has a TON of info. In dummy terms…park the vehicle on a level ground and measure the angle of the pinion. There are several pictures in the link that bear provided on how to do this. Pinion angle is relative to a level ground with the suspension settled (no jacks or jack stands).
After setting the pinion angle, check the working angles to make sure that your u joints are all within operating range. Done! There are 100 different methods that people go by, so don’t stress out on finding the perfect answer.
