HomeBrew VS asdf

Hey, I would strongly advise going with yt-dlp instead as YouTube-dl is outdated. Their GitHub page is here https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp . I personally have it installed with Brew, follow the instructions on this website https://brew.sh and after it’s installed, just run “brew install yt-dlp”. To download videos just run “yt-dlp “URL HERE”” (make sure to include the quotation marks around the url. Tell me if you need any help!

Definitely get Homebrew going - let's you install bunches of apps from commandline and just overall helps streamline the whole installation process.

Well yes but actually no (https://brew.sh)

As I was tracking the above performance regression, I discovered an open-source container runtime for MacOS/Linux called Colima. It is pretty much a Docker Desktop drop-in replacement and also offers VirtioFS (on Ventura - i.e. MacOS 13.x or newer). You don't need to uninstall Docker Desktop, just stop it and install Colima e.g. through Homebrew:

Command Line Tools: iTerm 2 alternative to the default Terminal homebrew mas homebrew bundle

Is there any reason to use Ninite instead of Homebrew?

You have homebrew homebrew install

Homebrew (Free) I won't get into it, I've already mentioned everything about brew Here (If someone hasn't removed it)

GitHub repo: https://github.com/Homebrew/brew

you’re going to run into stuff like this whether you’re using wsl or a vm, it’s just big standard dependency hell. pyenv or asdf make it pretty simple to ensure you have the right active python version in your environment asdf is particularly useful since it works for other cli tools aside from python

Yeah, I feel this. I recently added a .tool-versions file to a website repository (that non-programmers need to edit) and updated the README to say "install asdf (https://asdf-vm.com/) and then run `pnpm install`". And then I saw people try to follow the instructions and start needing to install Xcode, then Homebrew, etc., and it took forever. I think the right solution is to give them a 1-click cloud IDE with the repository loaded and a live preview running in the background.

I’ve published a few golang CLIs at various gigs for handling internal administration type tasks. Once I have a project publishing releases to GitHub, I also create an asdf plug-in for it. They’re pretty straightforward. Not only does it become easy to distribute, but folks can switch between versions easily.

Otherwise I use https://asdf-vm.com/ to manage stuff not tied to a specific project.

That's not related to Homebrew but you can check version management with asdf and golang plugin

asdf

I would normally suggest asdf for this but it choked on my systems trying to build 3.11.

I'm having a blast with it. Certain platforms have binaries available but I've been using SKDMan and asdf-vm with no issues and doesn't get in the way of your platform's JDK version if you have it as a dependency.
