1. **Install git, imagemagick, netifaces, pip, venv, and cryptography:**
- `sudo apt install git imagemagick python3-netifaces python3-pip python3-venv python3-cryptography`
**PRO TIPS**:
**PRO TIPS**:
- On **Ubuntu** and **Debian**, `python3-cryptography` is installed by default, unlike on Raspberry Pi OS.
- Installing `python3-cryptography` is not required if you plan to install a newer version using pip as described in Step 4.
2. **Download and extract Calibre-Web:**
- `sudo mkdir -p /opt`
- `cd /opt`
- `git clone https://github.com/janeczku/calibre-web`
- `sudo git clone https://github.com/janeczku/calibre-web`
- `cd calibre-web`
3. **Create a virtual environment** for Calibre-Web:
- `python3 -m venv venv`
- `sudo python3 -m venv venv`
4. **Install dependencies** by running:
- `./venv/bin/python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt`
- `sudo ./venv/bin/python3 -m pip install -r requirements.txt`
**PRO TIP:**
- **If you want a more recent version of `cryptography`** than your OS offers:
- `./venv/bin/python3 -m pip install cryptography`
- `sudo ./venv/bin/python3 -m pip install cryptography`
5. **Run Calibre-Web** with the command:
- `./venv/bin/python3 cps.py`
- `sudo ./venv/bin/python3 cps.py`
**PRO TIP:**
- Or use `nohup ./venv/bin/python3 cps.py` if you want to exit the terminal window.

Depending on your version of pip, the installation might fail with `Failed to build cryptography`. If you encounter this issue, try:
1. Updating pip:
- `./venv/bin/python3 -m pip install --upgrade pip`
2. If the error persists, install `cargo`:

On some Ubuntu versions, you may encounter the error `can't combine user with prefix`. This is a [known bug](https://github.com/pypa/pip/issues/3826) and can be resolved by installing the requirements with the `--system` flag:
- `./venv/bin/python3 -m pip install --system -r requirements.txt`
