Homebrew-cask VS SDKMan

Using Homebrew Cask for Calibre actually makes the problem worse because the download is consistently very slow for some people. For me, it took around an hour the last time I had it installed on my Mac.

(Note that I don't actually have calibre installed on my machine. I'm only going by the calibre.rb file present on brew's GitHub.)

seems like you might be able to look at https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/commits/89f99aad090a5148b0a44eef826f1fc7c0c6aa84/Casks/arc.rb and figure out which version works and plug the version into the download url. would be more ideal if theres a way to do it directly from brew but im not sure how offhand

I use Homebrew to install and delete most apps, because they include a zap list in their formula of all files and folders to delete when uninstalling. You can see Parallels formula and zap list here: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/tree/master/Casks/parallels.rb

Sto cercando di creare una "botte" per l'app VPN FORTICLIENT gratuita (e ho già fatto per il software Full Forticlient), vedi qui: [https://github.com/homebrew/homebrew-cask coin(https:/ /github.com/homebrew/homebrew-cask)

Huh, it was just accepted as the mainline fork in Homebrew last week! Been trying it and it seems to have all the features that the rowanj fork had! https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/pull/141659

True, and there's an issue for that: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/issues/89497

Follow the Homebrew file for installing Microsoft Edge, as it contains the folders to be removed when deleting Edge with brew: https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-cask/blob/08f8ed4f738f2245fe8166d64dbc68b4b26add7b/Casks/microsoft-edge.rb (check the "trash" list)

Alternatively, you can use sdkman. A great tool to install your Software Development Kit. The downside is that it only works on *nix systems. So for Widnows users, you will have to use WSL or Cygwin as the official page suggests. It is really simple to use sdkman. after a successful installation, just type those commands into your *nix shell:

To run the example, you must install the Auth0 CLI and create an Auth0 account. If you don't have an Auth0 account, sign up for free. I recommend using SDKMAN! to install Java 17+ and HTTPie for making HTTP requests.

Another option for installing Java is SDKMAN!, a versatile tool that’s easy to install and helps you manage multiple versions of Java.

Java 17

Java 17 or higher. You can use SDKMAN! to install Java if you don't have it already.

Ktor, a powerful web framework built with Kotlin, offers a lightweight and flexible solution for building web applications. In this article, we will guide you through the process of creating a Ktor project manually using Gradle and SDKMAN!. By following the steps below, you'll have a basic Ktor project up and running in no time.

If you have any tips/advice then I'm all ears. I've already modified the dnf.conf with fastmirror and max_parallel_downloads I'm currently not using sdkman because this is my personal machine, so I don't mind always using the latest version OpenJDK. If I ever do need to switch between versions then I'll switch over to sdkman instead.

For handling your JDK: I highly recommend purging your system of all JDKs/JRMs - get rid of it all - and download SDK (if you're using Windows, you'll need to do this through WSL). This tool manages software development kits very well; switching between JDKs is super straightforward: sdk use .

I use sdkman to install java related stuff. Check it out. No root needed.
