Considering the creation of an npm package or even to deploy on npmjs #72

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Wappalyzer was easy to install with an npmjs package, since the fork is created, it seems that there is no package available on npmjs, forcing people to install from source.

Describe the solution you'd like

We could deploy the package on npmjs to make it easy for new users, enhance the visibility and attract potential new contributors

Describe alternatives you've considered

Seems like there is an npmjs package, but it look like a random creation from a random guy that is not related to HTTPArchive contributions: https://www.npmjs.com/package/wappalyzer-zeeshan

Additional context

None

As noted in https://github.com/HTTPArchive/wappalyzer/issues/52#issuecomment-2453596372 we're not looking to main a replacement for Wappalyzer and are doing basic maintenance of this fork for our own needs.

We have a PR https://github.com/HTTPArchive/wappalyzer/pull/5 with NPM CLI package (seems identical to the mentioned one). I think it can indeed make the rules development process easier for HTTP Archive purposes.

But I'm not sure publishing it on npm.js will increase the number and quality of technologies.
