Distributing and Installing with Homebrew

[cylewaitforit]

Description

On one of my devices I use Bluefin Dx which is a Universal-Blue/Atomic Fedora based distro. I cannot install vite plus using curl as it would be wiped away by the next OS update. As such, they recommend installing CLI tools using Homebrew so that the software can be reapplied after an update.

Suggested solution

In Universal-Blue/Atomic Fedora based distros(like Bazzite Dx or Bluefin Dx) they recommend installing CLI tools using Homebrew (see: https://docs.bazzite.gg/Installing_and_Managing_Software/software-intro/).

Would the vite-plus team consider also distributing via homebrew? This may also be helpful for enterprises that use WorkBrew.

We already have plans to provide a Homebrew installation, with plans to complete it before the Beta version release

I've created a custom Homebrew formula which can be used in the meantime while waiting for the official formula:

brew tap markmals/tap
brew install vite-plus
