Homebrew install script #203

Closed jkthorne closed 4 years ago

Should there be a homebrew install script?

I have mtenv but it would be nice when setting up new environment to have myst in homebrew.

We've got a custom homebrew tap! https://github.com/myst-lang/homebrew-tap. I think it's mostly out of date now, though.

Myst almost definitely will not be added to homebrew-core, it's just too much of a hassle and doesn't provide the best possible experience for developing with Myst (installing multiple versions is hard, switching is even harder, etc.).

The ideal solution for me would be to maintain an official asdf-myst plugin for asdf as I think that provides the best, most versatile experience, and then let the community manage any other installation methods unofficially as people request them.
