The docs contain two commands to run on Windows. The first command can be run on any shell; the second is only valid inside PowerShell. While the syntax highlighting hints already indicate this, there is no way for the end user to have any knowledge of this; so this commit adds a notation on the second command denoting it should be run inside PowerShell

Installation with uv
The uv runtime manager ensures seamless Python environment management for applications like Open WebUI. Follow these steps to get started:
1. Install uv
Pick the appropriate installation command for your operating system:
-
macOS/Linux:
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh -
Windows:
powershell -ExecutionPolicy ByPass -c "irm https://astral.sh/uv/install.ps1 | iex"
2. Run Open WebUI
Once uv is installed, running Open WebUI is a breeze. Use the command below, ensuring to set the DATA_DIR environment variable to avoid data loss. Example paths are provided for each platform:
-
macOS/Linux:
DATA_DIR=~/.open-webui uvx --python 3.11 open-webui@latest serve -
Windows (PowerShell):
$env:DATA_DIR="C:\open-webui\data"; uvx --python 3.11 open-webui@latest serve
