SOLVED Transfer files to new machine

[Phyly]

Hi, I have an iMac 21.5" mid 2011 + Sierra V 10.12.6 and just purchasing a MACmini.
Question what is the best way to transfer all apps and files to the new mini. Not very tech minded and there seems to be a variety of ways to do this
I just need the dummy version.

Many thanks.
