Optimized installation

I love the concept and it really is quite nice.
One big reason I continue to use docker-compose is the installation process.
It does not require python to be installed at all.
I think to gain greater adoption, having an ultra simple installer that does not muck around with the system Python would be really great.
If that existed I would probably start using this right away - even making it so that it runs in docker would be more than OK.
The idiomatic way of installing Python packages is not in the system Python env, but using virtual environments. You can also use pipx, which is even easier. pipx is in all OS package managers.
I am familiar with both of those solutions however for better adoption of your project I think you could make prescriptive advice on how to install with the correct version of Python as well as installation using your chosen install process for systemwide availability.
