+    If you use `Microsoft Edge <https://www.microsoft.com/edge>`_ or `Google Chrome <https://www.google.com/chrome>`_, you will be able to install the initial configuration by connecting your ESP device to the computer that you're using to view the ESPHome Dashboard. If you use another browser, you will have to connect the ESP devices to the machine running the ESPHome Dashboard and Home Assistant.
