Here’s a clear, step-by-step guide in Markdown format for setting up PurpleTube on a Debian-based Linux distribution:

How to Install PurpleTube on Debian-Based Distros

Prerequisites

A Debian-based Linux distribution (e.g., Ubuntu, Debian, Linux Mint).
Terminal access with sudo privileges.

Step 1: Install Git

Open the terminal.
Check if Git is already installed:
```
git --version
```

If Git is not installed, install it:

sudo apt update && sudo apt install git -y

Step 2: Clone the PurpleTube Repository

Clone the repository using the following command:

git clone https://code.amassaro.com/angelo/purpletube.git

Step 3: Navigate to the PurpleTube Directory

Move into the cloned repository:
```
cd purpletube
```

Step 4: Set Up Permissions and Run the Installer

Grant execute permissions to the quick_install.sh script:
```
chmod +x quick_install.sh
```
Run the installer to install dependencies:
```
./quick_install.sh
```
- This script will display a list of required dependencies and install them automatically.

Step 5: Run PurpleTube

After the dependencies are installed, launch PurpleTube:
```
python3 purpletube4.py
```

Troubleshooting

If you encounter permission issues, ensure you are running commands with sudo where necessary.
If Python 3 is not installed, install it with:
```
sudo apt install python3 -y
```

Step 2: Setting Up Your Account

Create an account by entering your email and setting a secure password. Verify your email address to activate your account.

Step 3: Navigating the Dashboard

Familiarize yourself with the dashboard layout. Key sections include the main menu, settings, and tools panel.

Step 4: Uploading Your First Project

Click on the "New Project" button and follow the prompts to upload your files. Supported formats include MP4, MOV, and AVI.

Step 5: Editing and Customizing

Use the built-in editor to trim, add effects, or include subtitles. Save your progress regularly to avoid losing changes.

Step 6: Exporting Your Work

Once you're satisfied with your project, click "Export" and choose your preferred resolution and format. Your file will be ready for download.
