Thanks for the suggestions!
I used to have aIRChat running as a web service straight off the VPS hosting its official website, but I encountered a lot of trouble when people started connecting over it, as many IRC networks apparently limit the number of connections allowed from a single source. Having exceptions made for each network would have been a considerable challenge.
There is a link to the repository under the "contributing" section of the main site, but you're definitely right that I should have something more obvious. I'll do that!
I'm really not familiar with how NPM works, and I wanted to try to make the distribution as simple as possible for all users on all OSs, so I figured distributing everything the user needs in one package and providing an install script was the best I could do with my limited knowledge of package distribution. I'm definitely open to ideas about more convenient methods!
