taproom – TUI for Homebrew

taproom is a terminal user interface (TUI) for Homebrew. It provides a fast and fluid way to explore formulae and casks directly in your terminal.

Homebrew is a package manager that allows users to install, update, and manage software directly from the terminal without requiring root/sudo privileges.

This is free and open source software.

Key Features

• Table View: Overview of all available formulae and casks in Homebrew.
• Detailed View: Get more info on any package, including its description, version, homepage, license, dependencies, and 90-day install count.
  • Also shows dependencies recursively (only when the dependencies are not installed).
  • Also shows dependents (which other packages depend on this one).
• Search: Quickly find packages by keywords.
  • Default: match each keyword in either name or description.
  • Prefix n:: match the keyword only in the name.
  • Prefix d:: match the keyword only in description.
  • Prefix t:: match the keyword only in tap.
  • Prefix h:: match the keyword only in the home page.
  • Prefix -: turn into a negative keyword, can be combined with prefixes.
    • For example: ebook -facebook – search for ebook but not facebook.
• Filtering: View all packages, or filter by:
  • Formulae only
  • Casks only.
  • Installed packages.
  • Outdated packages.
  • Packages you installed explicitly (not as dependencies).
• Flexible Sorting: Sort packages alphabetically by name or by 90-day popularity.
• Status Indicators: See at a glance which packages are installed, outdated, or pinned.
• Execute brew commands: upgrade, install, uninstall, pin, or unpin packages directly in the TUI.
