+## Building from source:
+
+Install required Python libraries:
+```sh
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+pip3 install $(pwd)/monet/material_color_utilities_python-0.1.0-py3-none-any.whl
+```
+
+### Global installation:
+```sh
+git clone https://github.com/AdwCustomizerTeam/AdwCustomizer.git
+cd AdwCustomizer
+meson builddir --prefix=/usr/local
+sudo ninja -C builddir install
+```
+
+### Local build (for testing and development purposes):
+```sh
+git clone https://github.com/AdwCustomizerTeam/AdwCustomizer.git
+cd AdwCustomizer
+meson builddir
+meson configure builddir -Dprefix="$(pwd)/builddir/testdir"
+ninja -C builddir install
+ninja -C builddir run
+```
+
+**[NOTE]** During testing and developement, as a convenience, you can use the `local.sh` script to quickly rebuild local builds.
+
+### Building using flatpak-builder:
