Let me be even more explicit: if your installation instructions are `pip install ...` -- or `npm install ...` for that matter -- then you are automatically excluding a super-majority of potential users.
I don’t even write python these days. I just wrote my own version of a terminal llm-caller[^1] in Go for this exact same reason.
There’s a famous one that does the same thing but is written in Python. So it has its issues.
My point is, pip exists in most machines. pip install sucks but it’s not the end of the world. HN crowd (including myself) has a tendency to beat around the bush about things that the majority don’t care about IRL.
