Issue

Fixes #757

Description

The installation docs show uv add mellea, but uv add only works inside an existing uv project (one created with uv init or already holding a pyproject.toml). Users who just want to try Mellea in a plain virtual environment hit an error. This adds a short note clarifying that requirement and pointing to uv pip install mellea as the no-project alternative, matching the maintainer suggestion in the issue thread.

Testing

  • Tests added to the respective file if code was changed
