Description

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Installing and upgrading the application via npm/yarn is inconvenient for people who are not web developers and don't have or know those tools. Homebrew is an established way to install command line utilities of all sorts on macOS and very widely used even by relatively non-technical people, making it a good fit for a general-purpose utility like taskbook.

Describe the solution you'd like taskbook should be available via Homebrew on macOS and the readme should document installing via Homebrew.

Research direction
Create a Homebrew formula for the taskbook npm package. The formula should download the tarball from npm and install it as a binary. Update the README with instructions. Consider creating a custom tap or contributing to Homebrew core. No existing PRs or comments; start by reading Homebrew formula documentation and looking at examples like bat or fzf.
