 ## Requirements
-You should be familiar with and have [Python 3.8](https://www.python.org/) and [Poetry](https://python-poetry.org/) installed. We won't be providing any support for setting up your software environment. In the future, we'll be building more accessible packaged installer releases.
+You should be familiar with and have [Python](https://www.python.org/) (3.9-3.12 tested). We have now switched to [PEP 621](https://peps.python.org/pep-0621/) for dependency management and recommend using `uv` for management:

 ## Getting Started
 Here's how to install:
-```
+```bash
+# It is up to you to handle your Python environment. I recommend either:
+# mamba: https://github.com/conda-forge/miniforge?tab=readme-ov-file#requirements-and-installers
+#   mamba create -n perfi python=3.12
+#   mamba activate perfi
+# pyenv: https://github.com/pyenv/pyenv-installer
+#   pyenv install 3.12.8
+#   pyenv local 3.12.8 # in the perfi folder
+
+# You want uv
+pip install uv
+
+# Clone and install
 git clone https://github.com/AUGMXNT/perfi
 cd perfi
-poetry install
+
+# Install in development mode with all dependencies
+uv pip install -e .
+
+# To update dependencies to latest compatible versions
+uv pip install --upgrade -e .
 ```
 
 And how to run:
 ```
 # Interactive initial perfi setup (entity, accounts, API keys)
-poetry run python bin/cli.py setup
+python bin/cli.py setup
 
 # NOTE: Many commands below require an entity name to operate on.
 # For the rest of these examples, we assume you have an entity named 'peepo'
 
 # OPTIONAL: You can also add entities or addresses manually
-#
+
 # Add an entity 'peepo'
-# > poetry run python bin/cli.py entity create peepo
-#
+python bin/cli.py entity create peepo
+
 # Add an ethereum-style account named 'degen wallet'
-# > poetry run bin/cli.py entity add_address peepo 'degen wallet' 'ethereum' '0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000'
-#
+python bin/cli.py entity add_address peepo 'degen wallet' 'ethereum' '0x0000000000000000000000000000000000000000'
+
 # You add as many wallets as you want to an entity
 
 # Update the Coingecko price token list
-poetry run python bin/update_coingecko_pricelist.py
+python bin/update_coingecko_pricelist.py
 
 # OPTIONAL: Import data from exchanges (more docs below)
 # If you have data from Coinbase, Coinbase Pro, Kraken, Gemini, or Bitcoin.tax you can import this into perfi as well
-# > poetry run python bin/import_from_exchange.py --entity_name peepo --file peepo-coinbase-2021-rawtx.csv --exchange coinbase --exchange_account_id peepo
+python bin/import_from_exchange.py --entity_name peepo --file peepo-coinbase-2021-rawtx.csv --exchange coinbase --exchange_account_id peepo
 
 # Import on-chain transactions
-poetry run python bin/import_chain_txs.py peepo
+python bin/import_chain_txs.py peepo
 
 # Generate tx/price asset mappings - this step is key for matching like-kind assets and making sensical output
-poetry run python bin/map_assets.py
+python bin/map_assets.py
 
 # Turn raw exchange/onchain txs into grouped logical/ledger txs
-poetry run python bin/group_transactions.py peepo
+python bin/group_transactions.py peepo
 
 ### Generally you should not need to re-run anything above this line again ###
 
 # OPTIONAL: Set the timezone used for reporting (defaults to US/Pacific)
 # Get a list of valid time zone names with:
-# > poetry run python bin/cli.py setting get_timezone_names
+python bin/cli.py setting get_timezone_names
+
 # And set your reporting timezone with:
-# > poetry run python bin/cli.py setting set_reporting_timezone 'Europe/Lisbon'
+python bin/cli.py setting set_reporting_timezone 'Europe/Lisbon'
 
 # Calculate costbasis lots, disposals, and income
-poetry run python bin/calculate_costbasis.py peepo
+python bin/calculate_costbasis.py peepo
 
 # Generate 8949 xlsx file
-poetry run python bin/generate_8949.py peepo
+python bin/generate_8949.py peepo
 ```
 
 ### Importing data from exchanges
 Today, perfi supports importing trade data from Bitcoin.tax, Coinbase, Coinbase Pro, Gemini, and Kraken.
 
 To import data from an exchange you run the command:
 ```
-poetry run bin/import_from_exchange.py --entity_name <peepo> --file <path/to/export/file> --exchange <coinbase|coinbasepro|gemini|kraken|bitcointax> --exchange_account_id <anything_eg_default>
+python bin/import_from_exchange.py --entity_name <peepo> --file <path/to/export/file> --exchange <coinbase|coinbasepro|gemini|kraken|bitcointax> --exchange_account_id <anything_eg_default>
 ```
 
 - use anything you want for the `--exchange-account-id` parameter; it's just used to help potentially differentiate multiple accounts from the same exchange
