Add new way app delivery method: Brew? #39

We are implementing Pulse in our team, and it would be rather good to use something like Brew to install Pulse Pro on our team's Macs.

And for future updates, just use brew updating system instead of downloading from Github page

Thank you!

Yes, I'm considering two options: putting it on App Store (unlikely to happen) and adding an auto-updater.

Up to you 👍

IMHO brew is more widespread and it's easier to install then App Store

kean commented 1 year ago

I didn't know that. I only ever user to install the command-line tools. I'll definitely give it a try then.

I agree with the brew support, maybe I can contribute?

Brew is still really good for UI apps. I install everything I can via it, so I can maintain a Brewfile that can set up everything on my system.

It is worth mentioning this wouldn't just be a one-time set up though. It would likely involve either manual steps or some extra automation (and then checking it) for each new release.

Therefore, adding auto-updating into the app itself will also be very high value. That way the installation method just affects the first time install.
