Thank you so much for such clear explanation! All magic from Appium docs went away

Great job, Raghav, as a total beginner, I was able to install Appium, connect a device and open the calculator on it. Feels like ordering a pizza on the phone in Welsh <add any daunting language here> and having it delivered successfully to my doorstep. Great of you to think of us beginners!
