Front brake lines

Putting my car back together after a looooong break and confused about how the rubber lines from the caliper join to the hard line. I tried Google images to figure this out but most info is on PBR swaps.
The hard line coming into the well is a flare that I'm assuming goes into a female adapter.
I purchased new flex lines for the calipers from Autozone. These are male M10 x 1.0 on both sides. The non-caliper end is grooved for a spring clip to mount to the body. This is puzzling though because the M10 x 1.0 won't mate to the flare directly.
There must be an adapter that joins the hard and flex lines, but this would be female-to-female? I don't see any fitting like this online. Maybe I got the wrong flex lines?
