+# Element-web
+
+Element-web is the webinterface, Element in a browser. You'll find the source
+and [documentation on installing and
+configuring](https://github.com/element-hq/element-web/blob/develop/docs/install.md)
+on Github.
+
+You should never run Element-web on the same FQDN as your Synapse-server,
+because of XSS problems. So start by defining a new FQDN for where you will
+publish Element-web, and get a certificate for that.
+
+We'll use `element.matrixdev.example.com` here.

+              tee /etc/apt/sources.list.d/element-io.list
+apt update
+apt install element-web
+```
+
