+# ImmuneBuilder Installation Guide
+
+## Problem Summary
+
+ImmuneBuilder requires several complex dependencies that are not easily installable via pip:
+
+1. **pdbfixer** - Part of OpenMM, requires: `pip install openmm` then `pip install git+https://github.com/openmm/pdbfixer.git`
+2. **anarci** - Requires system dependencies and may not work on all platforms
+
+## Solution Implemented
+
+The AbMelt project now includes **fallback structure generation** when ImmuneBuilder is not available.
+
+### Option 1: Full Installation (Recommended for Local Development)
+
+```bash
+# Install via conda (recommended)
+conda env create -f environment.yml
+conda activate abmelt
+
+# Then try to install ImmuneBuilder dependencies
+pip install openmm
+pip install git+https://github.com/openmm/pdbfixer.git
+
+# Try to install ANARCI (may fail on some systems)
+pip install git+https://github.com/oxpig/ANARCI.git
+
+# Finally install ImmuneBuilder
+pip install immunebuilder
+```
+
+### Option 2: Pip-only Installation
+
+```bash
+# Create virtual environment
+python -m venv abmelt_env
+source abmelt_env/bin/activate  # On Windows: abmelt_env\Scripts\activate
+
+# Install base requirements
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+
+# Try to install ImmuneBuilder dependencies (may fail)
+pip install openmm
+pip install git+https://github.com/openmm/pdbfixer.git
+pip install immunebuilder
+```
+
+### Option 3: Fallback Mode (Always Works)
+
+If ImmuneBuilder installation fails, the application will automatically use a fallback structure generator that creates simplified PDB structures for testing purposes.
+
+```bash
+# Just install base requirements
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+# App will use fallback structure generation
+```
+
+## For HuggingFace Space Deployment
+
+The Dockerfile includes conditional installation of ImmuneBuilder dependencies with fallback handling. The space will work even if ImmuneBuilder installation fails.
+
+## Testing Installation
+
+Run the test script to check what's working:
+
+```bash
+python test_pipeline.py
+```
+
+This will show which components are available and which are using fallback methods.

+            ### About AbMelt
+            
+            AbMelt is a computational protocol for predicting antibody thermostability using molecular dynamics simulations and machine learning.
+            
+            #### Method Overview:
+            1. **Structure Generation**: Uses ImmuneBuilder to generate 3D antibody structures from sequences
+            2. **System Preparation**: Prepares molecular dynamics simulation system with GROMACS
+            3. **Multi-temperature MD**: Runs simulations at 300K, 350K, and 400K
+            4. **Descriptor Calculation**: Computes structural and dynamic descriptors
+            5. **ML Prediction**: Uses Random Forest models to predict thermostability
+            
+            #### Predictions:
+            - **Tagg**: Aggregation temperature - when antibodies start to clump together
+            - **Tm,on**: On-pathway melting temperature - structured unfolding temperature  
+            - **Tm**: Overall melting temperature - general thermal stability
+
