Extended the PikaPods documentation for non-technical users (#393)

I have extended the PikaPods documentation to cater to non-technical
users. This should be quite straight forward.

+you to run Actual for less than $ 1.50 per month (as of July 2024).
 
-## Deploying
+Using PikaPods is also a simple way to support the development of Actual Budget, as PikaPods will 
+share some of its revenues with Actual for customers using their Actual Budget pods.
 
-[Click here to create an account and run Actual on PikaPods](https://www.pikapods.com/pods?run=actual). You can leave the resources at their lowest setting (although you will need a non-zero amount of storage for your budget files).
+You get a $ 5.00 credit when you sign up, which means that you should be able to run Actual for 
+over 3 months before your credit runs out.

+If you are technically inclined, just [Click here to create an account and run Actual on PikaPods](https://www.pikapods.com/pods?run=actual).

 _Actual does almost all of its computation in your browser, so purchasing more resources for the server won’t necessarily result in a better experience_
+
+After you have set up your Pod, head over to our  [Starting Fresh](/docs/getting-started/starting-fresh) guide to get started with 
+Actual Budget.
+
+
+## A step by step guide to setting up Actual Budget with PikaPods
+
+[Click here to go to PikaPods setup for Actual](https://www.pikapods.com/pods?run=actual). 
+
+
+You will be greeted with the following screen.
+
+![](/img/pikapods-setup/pikapods-1-register-login.png)
+
+Click on the **register** inside the blue banner, which will take you to the user registration screen.
+
+
+## The user registration screen
+
+This screen is self-explanatory, but a kind reminder is to use a password only you know.
+You will need to use a working email address, as you will receive an email with a link you need 
+to click on to complete the signup process.
+
+![](/img/pikapods-setup/pikapods-2-register-name.png)
+
+
+## Verification email
+
+By clicking the green button saying **Activate and Login**, you are now registered as 
+a PikaPods customer. You will be returned to the login screen.
+

+
+
+## Login screen
+
+Enter the email address and password you registered yourself with.

+
+
+## Naming your Pod 
+
+A simplistic explanation of a Pod in layperson's terms is that *a Pod is a very tiny computer running in the cloud*.
+Typically, a Pod only runs one application - like Actual Budget.
+
+In 1), you enter a name for your Pod. This name really does not matter unless you plan to run several different Pods.
+In 2), you decide which region your Pod should run - choose the most suitable region.
+
+:::info
+
+One Pod running Actual can have multiple budgets available at the same time. You do not need to set up a new Pod
+for each budget you want to set up. The number of budgets is only limited by the storage capacity you assign to your
+Pod.
+

+
+
+## Assigning storage to your Pod
+
+
+The minimum storage you can assign to your Pod is 10 GB (gigabytes). We promise you 
+that this is more than enough for your budget purposes.
+
+Example: With around 1,200 transactions, 18 months of budgeting, and approximately 200 rules and payees, 
+it takes around 33 megabytes of storage. 10 gigabytes equals 10,000 megabytes, equivalent to 303 18-month budgets.
+
+Your Pod will be created when you click on the green **ADD POD* button. This step takes less than one minute.
+
+![](/img/pikapods-setup/pikapods-7-add-pod-resoruces.png)
+
+
+
+## Your pod is now ready to be used
+
+When click on the green **OPEN POD** you will be taken your Pod. 
+
+The address for your Actual Budget is found in the Domain field. In the screenshot example, this is
+`https://berserk-bullmastiff.pikapod.net/budget/`. Yours will be something completely different.

+
+
+## Setting a password for your Actual Budget
+
+Before you can start using Actual, you need to set a password for your server. This password is used 
+next time you log into your server - and should never be the same as your PikaPods account password.
+
+Keep this password safe, as it cannot be retrieved. If you forget your server password, you will not 
+be able to retrieve your budget.
