It seems like this library expects a user to have Python and some windows tools installed to compile the library. Node-sass includes some precompiled binaries for popular platforms https://www.npmjs.com/package/node-sass#rebuilding-binaries

Any chance this library can implore similar tactics to make it easier to adopt this in JS Ecosystem? Many of my users don't have python on their machines as they use Node and JS exclusively. In addition, some of our production boxes don't have the required tools either.

This library is definitely really worth the speed and performance gains over Node's built in zlib and gzip, but it might be impossible to use due to extra requirements.

I agree with you, unfortunately I dont have the time anymore for this kind of work.
I still maintain this library so that it remains compatible with Nodejs but that's about it.
I do welcome pull request though!
