Below are some possibly relevant thoughts, perhaps others will jump in with better suggestions / corrections.
If you're looking for something that doesn't involve additionally installing something and be multi-platform, I guess Powershell Core isn't going to do as that would also need to be installed. Also, not everything written for the original Windows Powershell is going to run with Powershell Core -- this very much depends on the code in question though.
One general alternative path is a rewrite in something like Node.js (+ nexe), Nim, or something else which has the practical option of producing an executable for each platform you have an interest in deploying to. Some of these options may result in a much larger download though -- unfortunately, it can often be the case that the ones that are easier to write the code for tend to produce larger files.
Depending on the details of what your code does, there may be another alternative that might work. It's the idea of writing a web-based app (though it could be stored in local files, so you wouldn't need network access to run it) that runs in a web browser.
Without seeing and working with the code in question a bit though, it's not clear which alternative might be appropriate and how much work it might be to carry out.
Do you mind posting the code for others to examine? Perhaps if the details can be studied, someone can give a better assessment about what might be involved.
