## Help

Why isn’t Browsersync connecting with my project?
  99% of the time, it's because your web page doesn't have a `body` tag. In order for Browsersync to connect properly the `body` tag must be present in your website (we add a script tag just after it). Alternatively you can provide a custom rule for the snippet using snippetOptions
Which mode should I be running in?
  - If you have simple HTML, CSS & JavaScript files, you need the server option.
  - If you already have an existing server setup (such as an Express app, Mamp, Rails etc, then you need the proxy option.
  - If you intend to copy/paste the snippet into your website manually, you use the `snippet` mode. This is the default mode and is achieved by omitting both the server & proxy options
Where can I report an issue?
