Registry
Homebrew Cask
The Homebrew namespace for desktop apps installed with brew install --cask. Checked separately from Homebrew Formulae.
Each Check asks the Homebrew cask API for a cask with exactly the Name. A 404 means Available.
Use it when the thing you are naming is a desktop app: a cask with the same Name would compete for the same install command.
