Homebrew is trash.

It originated and sounded like a curated package manager, not that that means anything today at all. I don't know when it was officially dropped in anyone's expectations, but homebrew is nothing more than a `git clone` run, and abstracting that is just dangerous for the user.

macpak is an interactive wrapper around Homebrew for macOS. It lets you browse, install, and uninstall Homebrew packages through a fuzzy-finder interface with live previews, so you spend less time typing commands and more time getting things done. It also includes a zapper that can completely remove applications installed outside of Homebrew, along with their leftovers.
