The most popular Homebrew casks

Every cask, not just apps: the 50 most installed Homebrew casks of the last 365 days, with the line to install each one.

8 Kasım 2026 tarihinde güncellendi

Kısa cevap

On November 8, 2026, the top three are Codex, Claude Code and Google Cloud CLI. Tümünü gör (50), or how it's ranked.

A cask is Homebrew's recipe for installing a Mac app or a prebuilt tool with one command. This is the raw chart: everything people install with brew install --cask, sorted by installs over the last year.

Apps, command line tools and fonts all count here, and each row says which one it is. If you only want apps, the most popular Mac apps list has those on their own.

How this ranking works
  • Source: Homebrew's public install analytics (formulae.brew.sh), which count installs by people who leave Homebrew's anonymous analytics on. App names and descriptions come from each Homebrew cask.
  • Read on: November 8, 2026. The 30 days run from October 9, 2026 to November 8, 2026. MacPip reads it again every week.
  • Ranked by: installs in the last 365 days. Nobody can pay for a place, and MacPip apps get no boost.
  • Included: Every cask in Homebrew's ranking except deprecated and disabled ones. Each row says whether it installs an app, a tool or a font.

Sorular

What is the most installed Homebrew cask?

Codex (codex), with 1,193,079 installs in the 365 days to November 8, 2026.

What is the difference between a formula and a cask?

A formula is built for your Mac or comes as a command line program. A cask installs something already made, usually a Mac app you would otherwise download from a website.

How do I install a cask?

With Homebrew installed, type brew install --cask and the cask name in Terminal, for example brew install --cask rectangle. Each row on this page shows the exact line.

Can I turn Homebrew's analytics off?

Yes. Run brew analytics off. The counts on this page only include people who leave analytics on, so they show the trend, not every install.
