Beschreibung

Currently this CLI has a native module dependency which drives the need for node-gyp dependencies like Python and C++. This makes installing the CLI far more difficult than intended.

To solve this issue, I'd propose we have a "distro" that is already compiled, and could even bundle Node.js. Installation can then just be an unzip/untar to keep things easy to begin with. We could then keep the npm option around for those that prefer to deal with the dependenceis.

The alternative would be to look into ways to remove the native dependency so that only Node.js is required.
