@tammoippen The instructions we have on our website do not work, so brewsci is the only option. Since the integration into homebrew/core is beyond our control, I think we need to provide instructions that work for now. We certainly cannot have instructions on the website that do not work.

This will install the most recent release version of NEST. To build
NEST from the most recent sources on Github, use

brew install nest --HEAD
