doc: add Homebrew (macOS) install instructions to README - #5354
Conversation
MovingBlocks/homebrew-terasology (transferred from a personal fork, see #5351) now provides two casks - terasology (pinned stable release) and terasology-latest-bin (latest develop/Omega CI build) - but the README's Alternative Installation Methods section never mentioned it, so macOS users had no discoverable path to it beyond the direct-download zip.

Before this can be considered, I think we need either a commitment from someone (including yourself) to maintain this tap in the long-term, or a more automated means of maintaining it ourselves. The preferred means of installation will remain the launcher, as it is consistent across all platforms and most macOS users are not expected to have Homebrew installed. It also creates a situation where, despite being largely a less supported platform, macOS gets preferential treatment for official packaging where Linux distributions do not. |
