Describe the feature you'd like

I dislike how BetterDiscord is only available for download from the website so I propose that BD installer is added to Homebrew Cask repo in order to allow installation from the terminal

Additional context

I would be happy to do all the work and put BDI into Homebrew casks

It is also possible to clone this repo and use the inject script

The BD Installer is a GUI so it won't allow installation from the terminal even if you add it to Homebrew.

As mentioned, you can clone the repo and run npm inject to install.
Or, if you want an actual manager, you can fork betterdiscordctl and adapt it for MacOS.

You can actually install GUI apps from Homebrew via brew cask, it unpacks the dmg and allows for it to be run from the Application folder or whatever

You can install and launch the installer from the terminal but you can't use it from the terminal.

If you're OK with that, no one's stopping you from creating and maintaining the cask yourself.

This is actually something I want to do, but I want to improve the CLI a bit before adding it to homebrew. Then I have to learn how to add it as well 😄
