Similar to winget, provide instructions for stable/beta/nightly for other package managers #34

Closed vraravam closed 2 years ago

vraravam commented 2 years ago

Since we publish nightlies/beta/stable - we should probably provide instructions for installing any of them. The instructions for the winget package manager are already present on the website. This PR replicates the same for homebrew, scoop, etc

Note: I have tested only the homebrew steps. I would request others to test the other package managers and then approve this PR

For the brew version, shouldn't that point to brew cask as it is a graphical application?

As long as there's no clash in names between formulae and casks, brew install ferdium will also work.

The choco package doesn't yet have the stable (the automatic updater didn't pick it up since a nightly got released before it ran that night), and we are considering if it's not worth only keeping the stable releases in there since it can be a bit complicated to have both because of the way choco updates are done. Do you think it is really interesting to provide stable in there too?

Another change will be Flatpak to add the info for the beta as soon as it will be ready.

If its not there already, lets not wait for the flatpack betas.

For choco - please decide and update the PR

Sorry for the delay, I was waiting for the chocolatey stable package to be accepted. For the others, scoop does not yet have a stable release, and flatpak will have the beta added at some point, so it is better to leave it out until it is done, but I would suggest to merge this PR asap in order to have the brew and choco installers now correctly displayed.
