About

Bun is a fast, all-in-one JavaScript, TypeScript, and JSX toolkit that ships as a single executable and combines a high-performance runtime, package manager, test runner, and bundler designed as a drop-in replacement for Node.js with broad compatibility and dramatically reduced startup times and memory usage. Written in Zig and powered by Apple’s JavaScriptCore, Bun can execute JavaScript/TypeScript files, scripts, and packages with significantly faster performance than traditional tooling while supporting zero-config TypeScript, JSX, and React out of the box. Its built-in package manager installs dependencies up to 30x faster than npm with workspaces, global caching, migration support, and dependency auditing. Bun’s test runner is Jest-compatible with built-in coverage and concurrent execution, and the bundler processes TypeScript, JSX, CSS, and more without configuration, including support for single-file executables.xx

About

The missing package manager for macOS (or Linux). The script explains what it will do and then pauses before it does it. Homebrew installs the stuff you need that Apple (or your Linux system) didn’t. Homebrew installs packages to their own directory and then symlinks their files into /usr/local (on macOS Intel). Homebrew won’t install files outside its prefix and you can place a Homebrew installation wherever you like. Trivially create your own Homebrew packages. It’s all Git and Ruby underneath, so hack away with the knowledge that you can easily revert your modifications and merge upstream updates. Homebrew formulae are simple Ruby scripts. Homebrew complements macOS (or your Linux system). Install your RubyGems with gem and their dependencies with brew. Homebrew Cask installs macOS apps, fonts and plugins and other non-open source software. Making a cask is as simple as creating a formula.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • Homebrew is a really easy way to install and upgrade various tools and packages on MacOS, for free. Its great for development, to make your mac a bit more like a linux box with common packages, GNU tools, etc. Its frequently updated so has lots of packages and quite recent versions of them.

Cons

  • Sometimes upgrading or installing one package triggers a lot of other packages to get upgraded too. Homebrew has its reasons for this, but it can be annoying when it takes a lot longer than you're expecting for just the package your interested in installing.
