Global module / CLI? #5

Perhaps we need to transform tweets-to-md in a CLI based program.

Go forward @ikhemissi :) About dropping es6 modules, I suggest to implement Babel or WebPack+Babel so we can keep our code base up to date, using the latest JavaScript syntax.

Look at #4 @ikhemissi

Thanks @jaydson If I may suggest (for anyone who will take this issue), I would recommend:

passing the tweets file path (json file) in the command line arguments directly
dropping es6 modules altogether as it will reduce the runtimes on which the cli will run, without bringing much advantage (IMHO)

Here is a nice tutorial for building CLIs: https://developer.okta.com/blog/2019/06/18/command-line-app-with-nodejs
