Can I install this plugin just by uploading the zip file? Do i need to configure anything afterwards? I don't see any info about the usage usage in readme.md

@hexclann You can install the plugin just by uploading and activating the zip file. If you have existing orders on the site before the plugin is activated then you will need to migrate existing order data over using WP-CLI.

Thanks for the info, Im setting up a new store right now. What happens if woocommerce itself moves orders to separate table in the future versions? Does it cause any issues?

@hexclann This is the only effort for WooCommerce to store orders in a custom table. Using this plugin will not cause any issues for future WooCommerce releases.
