What happened to the Brewfile? #350

Closed Kylar13 closed 2 years ago

Kylar13 commented 2 years ago

I've noticed there's no longer a Brewfile, and was wondering what the reason for that is, since I think it was very handy and I'm unsure as to why you would not want that

Hi! Yeah- just ended up not using it personally. It was a usually out-of-date list of apps, which at some point felt worse than having no list at all. :)

I still like the idea of it, though, so it's something that I might bring back in the future, maybe!

are you doing anything to track which formulas and casks you have installed in homebrew? if you were bootstrapping a new computer, how would you add your brew dependencies?

holman commented 2 years ago

Nope- I'm not personally doing anything right now. I think the Brewfile approach makes a lot of sense for a new setup, though!
