Simplify installation #5

Description

@T4cceptor

Problem

Currently, installation requires building from source, which poses a high entry-barrier for everyone who does not have Rust installed, is not familiar with the eco-system/tooling, or does not have the time and/or mental capacity to get into the weeds to build it from source.

Proposed solution

The solution would be to offer multiple different installation options, like:

  • manually download binary (from GitHub) - requires build pipeline
  • install via homebrew: brew install rustifymyclaw
  • install via shell script, e.g.: curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Escoto/RustifyMyClaw/main/install.sh | bash
  • use Docker image

Additional context

  • Not all solutions have to be implemented right away.
  • Main focus should not be "cover everything", but make it convenient for developers to install the tool in 90% of cases.
