# Homebrew package
Lighthouse is available on Linux and macOS via the [Homebrew package manager](https://brew.sh).
Please note that this installation method is maintained by the Homebrew community.
It is not officially supported by the Lighthouse team.
### Installation
Install the latest version of the [`lighthouse`][formula] formula with:
```bash
brew install lighthouse
```
### Usage
If Homebrew is installed to your `PATH` (default), simply run:
```bash
lighthouse --help
```
Alternatively, you can find the `lighthouse` binary at:
```bash
"$(brew --prefix)/bin/lighthouse" --help
```
### Maintenance
The [formula][] is kept up-to-date by the Homebrew community and a bot that lists for new releases.
The package source can be found in the [homebrew-core](https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/master/Formula/lighthouse.rb) repo.
