Fixes #250
Description
The source code will include prebuilt binaries for Mac OS X (darwin, x64) and Windows - for node 12 and 14. This will simplify and fasten the install process a lot.
Especially for Windows users that no longer will need to have CMake or C++ build tools installed. For Mac OS X users, the install process will be much faster.
In short:
npm install
will not trigger a Native AddOn build, because the binaries are already there. However, builds will still be run for systems that does not match the binaries.How Has This Been Tested?
