Homebrew
Package manager for macOS and Linux.
Why it is included
Per brew.sh: Homebrew installs the command-line packages Apple or your Linux distro didn’t ship—each formula lives in Cellar with symlinks into your prefix (e.g. /opt/homebrew on Apple Silicon), without scattering files outside that tree. Homebrew Cask extends the same workflow to macOS apps, fonts, and plugins; formulae are plain Ruby you can inspect and edit.
