Instructions for a supported install of Homebrew are on the homepage.
This script installs Homebrew to its preferred prefix (/usr/localfor macOS Intel, /opt/homebrew for Apple Silicon) so thatyou don’t need sudo when youbrew install. It is a careful script; it can be run even if you have stuffinstalled in /usr/local already. It tells you exactly what it will do beforeit does it too. You have to confirm everything it will do before it starts.
macOS Requirements
- A 64-bit Intel CPU or Apple Silicon CPU 1
- macOS Mojave (10.14) (or higher) 2
- Command Line Tools (CLT) for Xcode:
xcode-select --install,developer.apple.com/downloads orXcode3 - A Bourne-compatible shell for installation (e.g.
bashorzsh) 4
Brew tap homebrew/versions brew search gradle brew install gradle@214 gradle -version brew link -overwrite gradle@214 gradle -version This comment has been minimized. Sign in to view. Brew install gradle The first command will update all the package definitions of the Homebrew repositories. This way you will have all the up-to-date tools available. The second command installs and registers Gradle. Sep 03, 2019 Gradle provides a feature called the Gradle wrapper that includes a script to download the correct Gradle version to build the project automatically. However, in this tutorial, since it’s a tutorial about Gradle, you might go ahead and install it. Gradle can be installed with homebrew, SDKMAN, or via download.
Git Remote Mirroring
You can set HOMEBREW_BREW_GIT_REMOTE and/or HOMEBREW_CORE_GIT_REMOTE in your shell environment to use geolocalized Git mirrors to speed up Homebrew’s installation with this script and, after installation, brew update.
The default Git remote will be used if the corresponding environment variable is unset.
Alternative Installs
Linux or Windows 10 Subsystem for Linux
Check out the Homebrew on Linux installation documentation.
Untar anywhere
Just extract (or git clone) Homebrew wherever you want. Just avoid:
- Directories with names that contain spaces. Homebrew itself can handle spaces, but many build scripts cannot.
/tmpsubdirectories because Homebrew gets upset./swand/opt/localbecause build scripts get confused when Homebrew is there instead of Fink or MacPorts, respectively.
However do yourself a favour and install to /usr/local on macOS Intel, /opt/homebrew on macOS ARM,and /home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew on Linux. Some things maynot build when installed elsewhere. One of the reasons Homebrew justworks relative to the competition is because we recommend installinghere. Pick another prefix at your peril!
Multiple installations
Create a Homebrew installation wherever you extract the tarball. Whichever brew command is called is where the packages will be installed. You can use this as you see fit, e.g. a system set of libs in /usr/local and tweaked formulae for development in ~/homebrew.

Homebrew Gradle Update
1 For 32-bit or PPC support seeTigerbrew.
2 10.14 or higher is recommended. 10.9–10.13 aresupported on a best-effort basis. For 10.4-10.6 seeTigerbrew.
3 Most formulae require a compiler. A handfulrequire a full Xcode installation. You can install Xcode, the CLT, or both;Homebrew supports all three configurations. Downloading Xcode may require anApple Developer account on older versions of Mac OS X. Sign up for freehere.
