Describe the bug

Just installed localtunnels in a project on Node 20, Windows 11

A file was added in the .bin folder as localtunnel (not localtunnels as the docs describe). When attempting to execute ./localtunnels start i am told that the binary does not exist When attempting to execute ./localtunnel start it simply opens the cli.js file in my IDE. When following the instructions to run it within my codebase using startLocalTunnel, my application crashes (I'm running my application locally with ts-node).

Basically, none of the documented methods to run the application currently work for me.

Reproduction

Installed localtunnels in a project on Node 20, Windows 11. Attempt to use it as per the documentation.

Super sorry about this! I should be mentioning this better in the readme, but this is a major WIP still. Once I get the cloud component abstracted in here, so one can easily spin up their own server, I will create a proper release that matches what the readme and the docs mention.

The docs will also be elaborated quite a bit here
