- atombender 3d agoReplace "need" with "want" and it might make more sense? Homebrew is the Mac equivalent of APT, Pacman, RPM, BSD ports, etc. It's a fairly traditional package manager for software that doesn't come with macOS. "brew install postgresql" installs Postgres into /opt/homebrew, for example.
- assimpleaspossi 3d agoSo how does one install postgresql on a Mac?
- atombender 3d ago"brew install postgresql", unless you meant without Homebrew, in which case you could download the sources manually and compile with "make".
