So, what is Homebrew?

Monday, March 11th 2016

Homebrew is a package management software that allows Apple OS X users to install software on their operating system. Homebrew is a free, open source library of essential tools that any developer can use to download important software packages, such as NPM or Node.js. Regardless, most OS X developers use Homebrew to locally install vital software packages. In short, think of brew as the 'npm' or 'bower' of your mac.
