Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
This is a neat app and it clearly solves a useful problem (based on the response).

But the command line is ubiquitous and not all cli users are javascript devs who have / want to have npm installed.

Describe the solution you'd like
Come up with a way to remove the dependency on npm, using either existing transpilation tools to create binaries or via a port(?)

Port is less favorable option in my opinion, but I'm not enough of a JavaScript developer to be aware of options for creating binaries.

Additional context
This would also permit the creation of a lean debian package so those of us on *buntu could just apt-get install taskbook without pulling in dependencies. It further would increase the exposure of this nifty tool.

EDIT: Clearly there are stable options for binary releases. Issue is now whether debian packages are merited / desirable.

Yeah, of course the JS community has solved this problem 🤦‍♂️

Any plans from project maintainers to publish a debian package? I'm interested in possibly doing so / adding it to travis-ci if there is a need.
