12 Tooling
homebrew-tap
Homebrew packages for building and deploying the agnostic Protobuf transport mesh.
Homebrew formulae and casks for the-protobuf-project — tooling for building with Protobuf.
The sections below are generated from Formula/ and Casks/ and are kept in sync by the README Sync workflow.
Install
Each package below ships a ready-to-run command — just copy, paste, and run.
The names are fully qualified (the-protobuf-project/tap/<name>), so no separate
brew tap step is needed.

Updating
The formulae and casks in Formula/ and Casks/ are generated by GoReleaser on each upstream release. Regenerate them from the release pipeline instead of editing them by hand.
When a formula or cask is added or changed, the README Sync workflow regenerates the lists above.
