And it's actually a youtube video that allows you to grab videos not from just youtube but from many
sources. This is basically the clone of Winamp. It's gonna load Windows 95 of that era
Hey guys, welcome to Nomadic Dmitry channel. Today we are going to talk about package management on Mac.
HomeBrew: A Mac OS and Linux package manager. Yes, it exists for Linux too.
I didn't knew it exists for Linux too, but it does.
I have another video about package managers available on Mac OS and today it's different because Apple is moving to Apple Silicon and options will be changing.
HomeBrew is the default, number one option available for Mac still at this moment, so we are going to explore it
You can install it easily with just one command line, provided on the official website
Once you install it - you are ready to install any packages
You just need to type the name of the package and it installs it. Let's talk about my favorite packages for HomeBrew
The first one is Midnight Commander - a file manager that I especially like.
Each package has the information on how to install it, e.g "brew install midnight-commander"
here in terminal and install the package that you like and today we're actually going to discuss the
So, Midnight Commander is the first one.
The second one is an "htop" that allows you to see the list of running processes with ease.
I personally like it and recommend you to try it out
Also, it's easy to see the packages installed on the system with a command "brew list" - it will show you all the packages installed on your current system
all the applications i have right now in my system i'm actually gonna discuss a few of those
The interesting fact about "HomeBrew" that you can basically install not only like utilities like
command line utilities but you can also install applications this way
For example, I've installed Chromium this way. This is a browser that's similar to Chrome, but without any Google stuff
Another thing that I like are tools like "gedit" that I showed in my previous videos as well
It's popular for Linux users, but not as much popular on Mac, but it's still a good tool
Another thing that I've discovered were the apps like Re:AMP
I also installed it through HomeBrew and I liked it
It's like a WinAmp, but made for Mac specifically
This is like a complete clone of WinAmp, but made for a Mac
It's like WinAmp made for 21st century and written in Swift language.
You can customize it any way you want with the Winamp skins
Another thing I wanted to show you is Windows95
which is a JavaScript application (written using Electron framework)
This is like Windows 95 running in JavaScript environment which is very interesting concept
You can run Windows 9x applications here, but it's very unstable, so if you want a better environment you should use a Virtual Machine instead
It's much slower than real Windows emulated instance
Another utility that I like is "you-get" that allows you to download any kind of media
Not just YouTube, but it can grab media from many sources
For example, it might be Instagram or anything else
Another utility is "speedtest-cli" that allows you to measure a speed of an internet connection.
Very convenient and you don't need to open a browser window
Another interesting utility is "links" that allows you to see the website content in links and text, without any images
In some ways it reminds the 90s internet
It might be a good way to explore internet on the light, for reading books or anything like this
You can also search for packages using "brew search" syntax
"HomeBrew" is a nice way of installing packages on your Mac OS system, I highly recommend you trying it out.
