I have always found MacPorts as the best way to manage tooling.
All packages and dependencies are installed under /opt/.
The consistent pathing is the only sane way to manage tooling.
- AlexeyBrin 2y agoHomebrew also installs everything under /opt/ on aarch64. Pretty convenient when you want to nuke it and start fresh.
- detourdog 2y agoI had thought Homebrew's purpose was to leverage Apple's bundled what not. I haven't looked at Homebrew in over a decade.
- jetti 2y agoIt may have started that way but now it is used to install and manage applications and it makes it really easy to do so. There is even a Linux version of homebrew now
