Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/DavidAnson/markdownlint/issues/338

When developing a project that has no package.json (for example, a shell script project), it would be nice to be able to include markdownlint in the project's brew bundle file instead of having to create a package.json just for it. This is something Prettier, a project similar to yours, is doing. See here.

Apart from writing the initial fomula (probably very similar to the one I linked), you'd have to include a way to update the hashes when you release a new version. I don't know what are the best practices for automating that, but my guess would be to do it through a github action.

Would you be open to add this feature to the project? If so, would you accept pull requests for it?

I'll be moving this issue to the markdownlint-cli repository as I realize it's more relevant there.
