Rooting my Nexus 7

[Bobbi lim]

Hi, I've some basic experience regarding rooting and flashing of roms but I have some enquiry before I start flashing on my up and coming nexus 7.
So here are the steps to proceed on:
1st unlock the boot loader using fastboot oem unlock
2nd flashing a custom recovery using fastboot flash recover recovery.img
3rd just do a full wipe and install my downloaded rom and gapps
And I'm done with the steps for flashing on the N7 2013 edition right?

Nexus Toolkit from SkipSoft does it all and is very easy to use.

toolkits are nice because they make it easier indeed, whereas they should not replace the knowledge of manually doing it for the case of emergencies should you mess it up.
