Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ArchiveBox/ArchiveBox/issues/501

I just used installed ArchiveBox on Ubuntu Server 20.04 using pip3.
I can't archive anything since I get this error every time:

[X] Unable to find a working version of Chrome/Chromium, is it installed and in your $PATH?

Trying to add more site:
! CHROME_BINARY: unable to find binary (unable to detect version)

@XDavidT you need to install chrome as mentioned in the quickstart. You can also disable it, but then half of the extractors will be disabled along chrome.
You will also need to install node and run npm install.

Docker provides a way to run archivebox easily, in case this is proving difficult.

I think we need to put it before 'How does it work?'
Thx!
