What Does Homebrew Do?

• Homebrew installs the stuff you need that Apple (or your Linux system) didn’t.
• Homebrew installs packages to their own directory and then symlinks their files into /opt/homebrew (on Apple Silicon).
• Homebrew won’t install files outside its prefix and you can place a Homebrew installation wherever you like.
• Trivially create your own Homebrew packages.
• It’s all Git and Ruby underneath, so hack away with the knowledge that you can easily revert your modifications and merge upstream updates.
• Homebrew formulae are simple Ruby scripts:
• Homebrew complements macOS (or your Linux system). Install your RubyGems with gem and their dependencies with brew.
• “To install, drag this icon…” no more. Homebrew Cask installs macOS apps, fonts and plugins and other non-open source software.
• Making a cask is as simple as creating a formula.
