## Editing `configuration.yaml`
There are many ways you can edit `configuration.yaml`. Here are three options to get you started:
The simplest is to use the "File Editor" add-on. This will allow you to edit your configuration from within Home Assistant itself.
You can also use Samba (you may need to install the "Samba" add-on) and your favorite file editor.

## Reloading changes
You will have to restart Home Assistant for most changes to `configuration.yaml` to take effect.
