        var edgeOptions = new EdgeOptions();

        // Initialize the RemoteWebDriver with the desired endpoint and EdgeOptions.
        using var driver = new RemoteWebDriver("http://localhost:4444", edgeOptions);

        // Open a website.
        driver.Navigate().Open("https://example.com");

        // Find an element by its ID and perform an action (e.g., click).
        var element = driver.FindElement(By.Custom.Id("sampleElementId"));
        element.Click();

        // Always ensure to close the driver after use.
