4. Install Chromium (skip this step if you have Chrome or Chromium installed already):
   sudo apt install chromium-browser
5. Install ChromeDriver:
   sudo apt install chromium-chromedriver
   Or, if your version of Chrome/Chromium does not automatically update, download the corresponding ChromeDriver for your installed version. Then extract the binary into the ebayKleinanzeigen directory and don't forget chmod +x chromedriver.
6. Configure the app:
   • Copy the sample to a new file:
     cp config.json.example config.json

7. To run the app, run python3 kleinanzeigen.py --profile config.json
   If launching from VS Code, the following path variable should be set when not in headless mode:
