Summary

Gitpod has integrated Homebrew, a package manager for macOS and Linux, into its platform. This allows developers to easily install any software package in Gitpod without needing to set up a Dockerfile or create another workspace. Homebrew is convenient as it provides the latest stable versions of tools while other package managers may lag behind. Gitpod has pre-installed Homebrew for all workspaces and users can try it by opening a repository and running "brew install fzf". Packages installed with Homebrew have a low priority in the $PATH, but this can be changed by moving the installation command into the .gitpod.Dockerfile to make it permanent.
