Let us take a look at how to find the list of all the installed packages (Formulae) on your Mac using the homebrew package manager.
- Open Terminal App.
- Type the command: brew list
% brew list ==> Formulae bash-completion gettext libzip openssl@1.1 tldr brotli icu4c lua python@3.10 tree c-ares imagesnap lz4 python@3.11 xz ca-certificates libnghttp2 micro readline zstd cscope libuv mpdecimal ruby gdbm libyaml node sqlite ==> Casks docker visual-studio-code rar zulu8
As you would see not the list of Formulae but also Casks using the list command.
Do you know?
In Homebrew the packages or binaries are called "formulae" which is a British plural for "formula"
Cask: It a file is written in Ruby which is a DSL that describes how to install applications.
