zsh: command not found: brew

The error message "zsh: command not found: brew" indicates that the "brew" command is not recognized by the zsh shell. This error commonly occurs when Homebrew, a package manager for macOS and Linux, is not installed or not properly configured on your system.

To resolve this issue, you can follow these steps:

  1. Install Homebrew: Homebrew can be installed by running the following command in your terminal: /bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)" This command will download and run the Homebrew installation script.

  2. Configure Homebrew: After the installation is complete, you may need to add Homebrew to your shell's configuration file. You can do this by running the following command: echo 'eval $(/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/brew shellenv)' >> /home/your_username/.zprofile Replace "your_username" with your actual username.

  3. Restart your shell: To apply the changes, you will need to restart your shell or run the following command: source /home/your_username/.zprofile Again, replace "your_username" with your actual username.

After completing these steps, you should be able to use the "brew" command without encountering the "zsh: command not found: brew" error.

Please note that the above instructions assume you are using a Linux-based operating system. If you are using macOS, the installation process may be slightly different.
