I see a lot of quotes replaced (" with “) in the PR. Is there any difference in the meanings of both the characters. The one you replace it with isn't a character typed by standard keyboard.

Interesting, I didn't knew that :)

The thing is, they are not ASCII. And given the fact anyone can contribute to the project, it'd be quite tedious to maintain consistency for quotes in the future examples. I hope you understand...
