First I just want to say thanks for a very handy and great utility. It would be awesome if were available in HomeBrew. Thanks!

How do I do it (especially without having a Mac)?

Shall I just prepare some naive pull request (based on something like ripgrep.rb)?

Hmm... Good question. By chance are you testing on a Mac currently ?

No, I only occasionally test on Mac personally. Users report that it works altough.

It seems like there is also Homebrew for Linux, so maybe I can try using it for submitting a pull request.

I can report it seems to work pretty well as a client on mac :D If you get a pull request together, I'd gladly help with any testing. Homebrew is pretty much the defacto package manager for osx, so open the doors for a lot of new users.

@exabrial Websocat seems to be added to Homebrew. Please check if it works for you.

Note that brew install websocat is expected to take long time and occupy significant disk space (especially if you don't have Rust already brew installed).
