AMP page to the non-AMP page

If you have both AMP and non-AMP versions of your pages, include the following links:

Could someone help clarify the following please?
On any non-AMP page, reference the AMP version of the page to let Google and other platforms know about it:

https://www.example.com/url/to/amp-version.html" />

On the AMP page, add the following text to reference its non-AMP canonical version:

https://www.example.com/url/to/regular-html-version.html" />

Suraj Gadage: +Thames Valley Discos ;Your approach is right. ;You need to create an identical AMP HTML page of ;the page you want to and add information about the AMP page to the non-AMP page and vice versa, in the form of <link> tags in the <head>.

Ex- <link rel="amphtml" href="https://www.example.com/url/to/amp/document.html">

Let's say you only want to have one page and that page is an AMP page, you must still add the canonical link to it, which will then simply point to itself. ;

Ex- <link rel="canonical" href="https://www.example.com/url/to/full/document.html">

Thames Valley Discos: Ok thanks, basically let crawlers know the real page is your original html5 one
Suraj Gadage: +Thames Valley Discos ;Yes. Let crawler know the real page.
Thames Valley Discos: +Suraj Gadage ; can you index separately, won't Googlebot just use the AMP page as prefered Mobile page and normal for desktop? ;
Suraj Gadage: +Thames Valley Discos ;You are right. You can't index them separately.
