+## Linux Ubuntu Installation (using pipx)
+
+If you're using Ubuntu Linux and prefer not to use package managers like conda/mamba or virtual environments, you can install `ai-marketplace-monitor` as a system-wide command using `pipx`.
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+If you haven't used `pipx` before or don't have `$HOME/.local/bin` in your `$PATH`:
+
+```bash
+sudo apt update
+sudo apt install pipx
+pipx ensurepath
+source ~/.bashrc
+```
+
+**Note:** You may need to restart your terminal or run `exec bash` instead of `source ~/.bashrc` for the PATH changes to take effect.
+
+### Installation
+
+```bash
+# Install the main package
+pipx install ai-marketplace-monitor
+
+# Install playwright in the same virtual environment
+pipx inject ai-marketplace-monitor playwright
+
+# Install playwright browsers
+playwright install
+```
+
+If prompted to install playwright system dependencies, run:
+
+```bash
+sudo /home/YOURUSER/.local/bin/playwright install-deps
+```
+
+### Configuration
+
+Edit your configuration file using your preferred text editor:
+
+```bash
+# Using nano
+nano ~/.ai-marketplace-monitor/config.toml
+
+# Using vim
+vim ~/.ai-marketplace-monitor/config.toml
+
+# Or install a code editor via snap (recommended method for VS Code)
+sudo snap install code --classic
+```
+
+### Verification
+
+To verify the installation was successful:
+
+```bash
+ai-marketplace-monitor --version
+```
+
+### Troubleshooting
+
+- If you encounter permission issues, ensure `$HOME/.local/bin` is in your PATH
+- If playwright browsers fail to install, you may need to install additional system dependencies with `sudo apt install libnss3-dev libatk-bridge2.0-dev libdrm2-dev`
