It’s important to remeber that this setup isn’t the most user-friendly. There will be no config files to edit or download in this guide.

Frankly, you should be having zero problems working with all those defaults now that you’ve run through this guide! BUT - I wanted to include some <em>very minor</em> configuration tweaks that might make things a little more intuitive for newcomers.
