Homebrew vs ProGet: What are the differences?

Developers describe Homebrew as "The Missing Package Manager for macOS". Homebrew installs the stuff you need that Apple didn’t. Homebrew installs packages to their own directory and then symlinks their files into /usr/local. On the other hand, ProGet is detailed as "A Package management system, Package your Applications and Components". It allows users to host and manage personal or enterprise-wide packages, applications, and components. It was originally designed as a private NuGet manager and symbol and source server.

Homebrew and ProGet can be primarily classified as "Package Managers" tools.

Homebrew is an open source tool with 18.6K GitHub stars and 4.15K GitHub forks. Here's a link to Homebrew's open source repository on GitHub.
