## Installed From Source

If you have built `websurfx` from source then the configuration file will be located under project directory (codebase) at `websurfx/`

> **Note**
> If you have built websurfx with unstable/rolling/edge branch then you can copy the configuration file from `websurfx/config.lua` located under project directory (codebase) to `~/.config/websurfx/` and make the changes there and rerun the websurfx server. _This is only available from unstable/rolling/edge version_.

## Installed From Package

If you have installed `websurfx` using the package manager of your Linux distro then the default configuration file will be located at `/etc/xdg/websurfx/`. You can copy the default config to `~/.config/websurfx/` and make the changes there and rerun the websurfx server.
