Hi! I have been trying to set up Jellyfin for Windows, with some success. However, I basically skipped step 2 of the quick start guide (the step about editing the web configuration file) without realizing it. I downloaded the stable version of the web config file from this page after the fact, but haven't done anything else. At this point I don't know what to do or what any of this actually means. The phrasing of "Our defaults sacrifice some absolute self-hosting for often requested features." in the quick start guide seems to imply that the step is somewhat optional, because there is a default state for it, but I can't tell for sure. (As a quick bit of feedback, I think some clearer wording in this section would be helpful!)
To get to the bottom line here: my goal is to use Jellyfin to stream my music collection to my phone, regardless of my location. I understand that I have additional work to do before I can do that securely, basically step 5 of the guide, but I'm not here to ask about that (yet). My question is, will not having edited the web config prevent me from doing this?
Thanks!
