  • Asdf – An Extendable Version Manager
    9 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 3 Feb 2021
    We use it at GitLab since a few months in order to manage our development toolchain [0]. Before we had people using rvm, rbenv, nvm, homebrew, system packages and everything in between. Supporting our engineers and non-engineers has been a lot easier since asdf, and the whole version manager related issues calmed down a bit.

    The only thing I miss from homebrew is the pre-compiled stuff like e.g. Postgres or redis
