What are `apt` and `brew`?

Linux provides tools to efficiently install, update, remove, and manage dependencies for software (packages). Two widely used tools are listed below:

1. apt (Advanced Package Tool)

A package manager used in Debian-based Linux distributions, such as Ubuntu, where commands are executed using apt.

sudo apt update  # Refresh the package list
sudo apt install vim  # Install vim
sudo apt remove vim  # Remove vim

2. homebrew

A package manager for macOS. While it is primarily used on macOS, it is also available on Linux, and commands are executed using brew.

brew update  # Update Homebrew
brew install wget  # Install wget
brew uninstall wget  # Remove wget

The process of installing and removing programs is somewhat similar to using Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs in Windows, but there are some key differences.
