6 Years of Appium
summary
Project starts as a hacked-together command-shell Python hack that reads files with cat, evals JavaScript and auto-fills OS permission dialogs, evolves into a stable automation server that translates WebDriver HTTP into XCUITest, UIAutomator, Selenium and more. It supports iOS, Android, Windows and macOS, attracts hundreds of contributors and hundreds of thousands of users with ~7,000+ GitHub stars, spawns an AppiumConf and a GUI, and guides a roadmap toward a general WebDriver broker for automating any device.
