Homebrew, it's like npm for your Mac

Did you know you can install Spotify, 1Password, Slack, and other obscure techy dev stuff with Homebrew?

I did not until looking closer at this Mac setup script by @chris_sev on our unauthorized and rum-fueled treasure hunt setting up my new MacBook Air.

It's usually pretty straightforward to guess the "cask" name.

Descript is descript:

brew install descript

1Password is 1password:

brew install 1password

But VSCode is visual-studio-code:

brew install visual-studio-code`

Using Homebrew saves you so much time! You no longer need to find the download button on each site, wait for the download, and then drag the icon to the Applications folder. Fire and forget!

 

All the best,
