So I'm going to start writing stories again, but I just want to upload the introductory page of it (description, tags, etc.) without uploading any actual chapters, yet. Will the introductory page be publicly visible or is it private until I uploaded at least one chapter?

As far as I know, they go into the approval pile after you publish the first chapter. Until then, no, it's not visible.

Need others' input on it though, because I never uploaded anything without publishing chapters too.

You can access them even without chapters if you know the number that is registered on the database.
For example:

Thank you, comrade.

It can be seen if someone has a link to it or put it into their reading list (i.e. chapter posted, reader adds to reading list, author deletes all chapters). But normally, it can't be seen before a chapter is posted.

So, a follow-up question, more of a clarification, really. It wouldn't appear in the Latest Series if you were yet to upload the first chapter or woulld it appear?
