Adding this feature will reduce the need for system deps to compile the binary.

Here are some examples of other npm packages that allow for precompiled binary downloads. Falling back to local compiling.

I plan to add some proper CI and tests to the project sometime soon, I'll see if I can work in generating pre-built binaries for Windows, Linux and macOS into the CI process. Looks like something like prebuild/prebuild and prebuild/prebuild-install would do the trick!
