Homebrew Now with a Mac Desktop App

If you are on Mac, love Open Source, and are using or have been thinking about using Homebrew: The Package Manager for Everywhere, there is now a Mac app for Homebrew - Homebrew/BrewUI: Homebrew’s official macOS GUI.

Somewhere mid-week I stumbled upon it and thought it was worth a try. This may be one of my new favorite apps. I normally update Homebrew on my Mac every month or two. I use Homebrew for all sorts of different things (it is one of my Python builds, but not my main environment). But, having an app with easy quick Homebrew package and cask updates, I can easily see what packages I have (and if they need updating, and what their upstream and downstream dependancies are), and Homebrew doctor is included too.
