    Who need Homebrew?

    Hello, I'm trying to understand who needs Homebrew and why. Why should I use Homebrew if I can download the app from an official website? Can somebody explain to me why everyone uses it? It's just hype or is it really convenient in some moments? I just can't figure out how Homebrew can help me. Thx!
