I recommend running facebed in a virtual environment if you don't want to pollute your system-wide python installation.

Copy start.example.py to start.py and edit the PYTHON variable to the full path of your python interpreter. Two examples are provided for running facebed in a venv virtual environment on Windows and Linux. After that, you can start facebed by running python start.py using your system's python since that script doesn't have any external dependencies.
