Is it possible to root and grow a new aloe plant from a (oops, accidental) leaf cutting? If so, how? Thank you.?

So I was cleaning up some dead stuff on a few of my mature aloe plants and accidentally snipped off a new, bright green, young leaf. Should I let it callous, then plant it? Or plant it right away? In water or in potting medium? Sunlight, or no? Indoors or outdoors (this was from an indoor plant.)

Any advice is appreciated, thank you.

    The plant grew by cutting after planting a kind in the ground while it’s steal connected to the tree

    just stick it in portting mix or good dirt and keep it moist and it will soon root and grow
