Description

I have much :heart: for this module. :smile_cat:

That said, the GIFs stop rolling in when you have a postinstall step - it would be nice to see that output, since they're usually important commands.

or, more GIFs! either way.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Examine the gifi source code to understand how it currently hooks into npm lifecycle events (e.g., install) and find where to add postinstall output display. Look at the existing GIF display mechanism and extend it to show stdout/stderr from the postinstall script.
