+# Introduction
+In this tutorial, you will learn how to install Homebrew on your netcup server to manage software packages. Homebrew simplifies software management, especially in Unix and Unix-like environments. This guide will also equip you with knowledge on performing basic operations like installing, removing and managing packages.
+
+This tutorial is focused on Linux distributions and should be read with that context in mind.
+
+# Requirements
+A netcup server running a fairly modern distribution of Linux such as the latest Ubuntu or Debian. You will need root or sudo privileges to complete the installation.
+
+# Step 1 - Install dependencies
+First, ensure your server has all required dependencies.
+
+```bash
+sudo apt-get install build-essential curl git
+```
+
+# Step 2 - Install Homebrew
+Download and run the Homebrew installation script using the following command:
+
+```bash
+/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/install.sh)"
+```
+
+Then, adjust the PATH variable to include Homebrew, using:
+
+```bash
+echo 'eval "$(/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/brew shellenv)"' >> $HOME/.bash_profile
+eval "$(/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/bin/brew shellenv)"
+```
+
+# Step 3 - Verify Homebrew installation
+Use the command `brew doctor` to confirm Homebrew is working as expected. You may also verify that everything is installed properly by installing a package:
+
+```bash
+brew install python
+```
+
+# Common Homebrew commands
+- Install a package: `brew install package_name`
+- Uninstall a package: `brew remove package_name`
+- List installed packages: `brew list`
+- Remove unneeded dependencies: `brew autoremove`
+
+# Removing Homebrew
+Download and run the uninstallation script to remove Homebrew:
+
+```bash
+/bin/bash -c "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/HEAD/uninstall.sh)"
+```
+
+You may manually remove leftover directories to finalize the uninstallation.
+
+# Conclusion
+Homebrew can be a handy addition that helps with software management on your netcup server. Homebrew can simplify tasks, from installing to managing packages.
