I only know to do a prologue if there is going to be a time-skip for chapter one. Like galactic scifi writing and mentioning an empire with some background. Follow it with a major event that sets as the backbone/goal/tone/mystery of the rest of the book as to why the rest will be important.
Or in my case (not the one in my signature), to skip what I consider the boring parts of the start of isekai stories. The part of gathering X to setup and then promptly forgetting about it for the rest of the story when the tone shifts into the bread and butter. I did X so many times because I'm new to the world! These five chapters of nothing but grueling work was to survive/build/power-up... now let's focus on the next hundred chapters with cooking. And end it with some kingdom building.
