    Hey everyone. I'm going to be releasing a Python video today at noon showing how I wrote a script to analyze a JSON API of Homebrew Packages. You don't need to use Homebrew or be on a Mac to follow along. It will be great practice for anyone learning Python.
    I will also be releasing a video next week showing how I use Homebrew to set up a new MacBook from scratch using scripts. Hope everyone is having a great week!

      @@sandeepvk I got a Refurbished 2017 MacBook Pro that was the deal of the day on Amazon a few weeks ago. I probably won't use the touch bar all that much, but I also don't mind it either. I could definitely do without it. I'm kind've a minimalist, so I could definitely do without extra bells and whistles that don't actually save me much time or convenience.

    This tutorial was very helpful. I was trying to automate something using Python, homebrew, selenium and NumPy. I never worked with any of these nor have I ever really worked in a terminal setting. Your video along with a little additional research of my own helped me solve my issue and get my automation up and running. Thank you!

    Thank you for the nice video! Although some information are already outdated (cask must now be called using --cask brew search doesn't list the available packages) it was very usefull. Since I already know the linux commands that you used, it is a very straight forward explanation to my main interest which was the access to homebrew.

    Do you have any recommendations for entirely uninstalling previously installed versions of Python for Mac? I’m not taking about the Python 2 that is automatically built into Macs, but Python downloaded from online, for example 3.x. I want to do this so that I can start using HomeBrew and not worry about big clutters of Python packages in my system. Great video!

    What is your suggestion for Javascript package management on my MacBook? I am just starting to work with it and have started with 'npm' but I have also seen 'yarn' which seems popular. I want something that will work nicely with ReactJS, Brew, Django, etc. So 'npm'? 'yarn'? or something else for my MacBook?

    • @coreyms

    Still not clear on update vs upgrade. If "$brew update" updates all our installed packages, then doesn't this mean that the update command will fetch the latest/updated version of the corresponding installed package ? How exactly does this differ from the "$brew upgrade" command ?
    Also, what if we want to update/upgrade the actual homebrew package itself ?
    Thank you in advance for your time.

    Got a question for you about how all this works on cask apps. I like to to organize my Applications directory structure - for example, moving things like VLC and GIMP into a special /Applications/Multimedia folder, some others into /Applications/Internet, etc.
    Since the Homebrew cask installation automatically moves things to /Applications, would it cause any future conflicts for me to further move something from there?

      Scoop (scoop.sh) is a pretty good package installer for Windows. Works exactly the way Homebrew does, and fetches application setups from source. You dont even need admin for scoop apps. So now you can use Linux cli tools in cmd/ps. Usage is of the form `scoop [install/info/search/list/uninstall/cleanup] `.
