+### Using BrowserSync
+
 To use BrowserSync during `gulp watch` you need update `devUrl` at the bottom of `assets/manifest.json` to reflect your local development hostname.
 
+For example, if your local development URL is `http://project-name.dev` you would update the file to read:
+```json
+...
+  "config": {
+    "devUrl": "http://project-name.dev"
+  }
