Distribution: Homebrew tap / formula for easy install + updates #275

Description

@salmonumbrella

Thanks for am — it's a genuinely lovely Apple Music CLI, and the Discord rich presence is a great touch.

Request

Would you consider distributing am via Homebrew, ideally a personal tap (e.g. ryanccn/homebrew-tapbrew install ryanccn/tap/am)?

Why

Homebrew is the default way a lot of macOS users install and keep updated CLI tools. Today the options are:

  • cargo install am — compiles from source needs a Rust toolchain
  • cargo binstall am — fast, but requires installing cargo-binstall first
  • manual binary download + xattr -d com.apple.quarantine + chmod +x

A Homebrew formula would give a one-liner install with automatic updates and no Rust toolchain required.
