Homebrew
Homebrew is the go-to package manager on macOS — the Mac equivalent of winget on Windows. A command-line tool that downloads and installs software from a community-maintained catalog: instead of hunting for an installer on the web, you type brew install git node in the Terminal and everything installs in its latest version. Graphical apps go through “casks”: brew install --cask tradingview installs TradingView Desktop. The Mac guide uses it to install Git, Node.js, and TradingView in three commands. Bonus: brew upgrade then updates, in one shot, everything Homebrew manages on your machine.
