The osmium command line tool is available as a pre-compiled software package on 
some popular linux distributions. It should be quite easy to install.

On Debian and derivatives (e.g. Ubuntu) you can install it with: ‘sudo apt-get 
install osmium-tool’. Similarly on Fedora there is an RPM package called 
osmium-tool. 

On MacOS you can install it with 'brew install osmium-tool'.

It looks like there are no easily available build of osmium-tool for Windows. 
This is fairly common for open source software. Many FOSS developers have 
little or no experience with Windows or actively avoid it. If you’re going to 
be building data pipelines using a lot of open source tools it’s probably worth 
having a machine (or virtual machine) with a unix-like OS on it.

Here is a support issue where people were setting up a Windows build of osmium. 
It looks like it was eventually abandoned because there was no one to maintain 
it. https://github.com/osmcode/osmium-tool/pull/105
