It's an interesting project, but it's inconvenient to install and use. I'm not an active Node.js developer, so I don't want to install Yarn just to be able to install this single app.

It would be great to have the possibility to install the app using the NPM and to run it using its own executable, like devto or similar.

Hi @ferenczy. Appreciate you taking a look into the project. This was made by me when I was using dev.to almost daily and thought it would be fun to make a CLI app for the same.

Unfortunately, I don't use dev.to today and lack the necessary interest to continue working on this. :/

P.S. I remember trying to make a binary but it was really huge. A few APIs were also unavailable at that time. Also, if I were to rewrite the project today, I would use something CLI-convenient like Go.
