Why should I use Homebrew?

Homebrew centralizes app updates through community-curated packages, delivering a more reliable and consistent update experience rather than opening each app individually to check for updates.

Homebrew Casks are packages with update metadata for applications, maintained by app developers and community contributors to ensure timely updates and quality control.
