How do I introduce an adult cat to an adult dog?

I know I can consult many websites and videos but I want to know from ya’ll.

My cat is about 5 and super mellow. The dog is a maltipoo, sweet and friendly. They are about the same size but my cat has more weight on him. The dog already just wants to be friends with Jasper and play but Jasper is very apprehensive. The dog has come into my room to observe the cat and my cat looks wary but is in no way aggressive.

Other things to know:

It’s the dog’s territory, Jasper moved into his home.

I have no idea what type of history Jasper might have in regard to dogs.

I have never had a dog so I’m unsure about their cues when they are about to be aggressive.

Any help, including links to websites and/or videos, would be much appreciated.
