## Manual Installation
### Installation with `uvx`
It is highly recommended to use **`uv`**, a Python runtime manager, to ensure seamless Python environment management and avoid conflicts. Using `uv` is especially helpful when running multiple Python projects with different dependencies.
#### Install `uv`:
Visit the official [`uv` documentation](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/getting-started/installation/) for details. Below are the quick commands for installation based on your operating system:
- **macOS/Linux**:
```bash
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
```
- **Windows**:
```powershell
powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex"
```
Once `uv` is installed and everything is configured, you can proceed with the following command to install and serve Open WebUI:
```bash
uvx --python 3.11 open-webui serve
```
This command will:
1. Download and install the required Python 3.11 runtime if `uv` doesn't already have it.
2. Install Open WebUI along with its necessary dependencies.
3. Start the Open WebUI server.
After running this command, Open WebUI will be served at [http://localhost:8080](http://localhost:8080). Enjoy! 😄
### Installation with `pip`
For users installing Open WebUI with Python's package manager `pip`, **it is strongly recommended to use Python runtime managers like `uv` or `conda`**. These tools help manage Python environments effectively and avoid conflicts.
