Document why an application must be started #63

Open thojanssens opened 1 year ago

I have a rather simple question, why does this library starts an application? Maybe it'd be nice to explain briefly in the docs. I see that the library makes the use of :timer.sleep so I'm not sure for which part an application is necessary.
