Thanks! I think I'm going to root with CF-AutoRoot since TWRP gets removed on reboot for me.
I would personally install recovery and flash supersu or magisk via twrp. But good luck. Glad I could help

Or install twrp and install a custom rom that's pre rooted

Use Kies to get drivers then use Odin [Which is pretty unstable when it comes to actually flashing anything -_-] to flash it.
You only flash TWRP Recovery via PC, not from phone side. That's why you got stuck on bootloop, you can't do everything from Android side.

Yup! Everything went well! Thanks for all your help!
Also, I can't flash TWRP since as soon as it boots into Android TWRP is removed.
You may he able to flash twrp and without booting into android just flash a custom rom.

But if you're happy as is it's your call

I like the "stock" (In quotes since it's actually Samsung) Android I have. I think I might be able to do everything backwards, get root with CF-Auto root, flash TWRP, and then flash Magisck.

Great news! I got root access using CF-Auto-Root, installed Magisk (unfortunately I'm using SuperSU and not MagiskSU), and then flashed TWRP using Terminal Emulator. I now have root, SuperSU, and a custom recovery (and a custom ROM later if I decide I want that). Thanks everyone!
