Research direction
Examine the existing Install section in the README (https://github.com/ipfs/ipfs companion#install) to understand the current release and beta channel links. Then create a single static HTML page that uses JavaScript to detect the user's browser via navigator.userAgent and displays only compatible installation buttons. Look for any similar static pages in the repository for styling conventions.
