 Nx can manage its own installation without requiring a `package.json` file or a `node_modules` folder. This type of installation is useful for repositories that may not contain any JavaScript or TypeScript (e.g. .Net or Java based workspaces that want to leverage Nx features). In this setup, the Nx CLI is all contained within a `.nx` folder.
 
-## Usage
+## Globally Install Nx
 
-You can install Nx in the `.nx/installation` directory by running `nx init` in a directory without a `package.json` file.
+First globally install Nx using Homebrew (Mac only) or with a manually installed version of Node (any OS).
+
+{% tabs %}
+{% tab label="Homebrew" %}
+
+If you have [Homebrew installed](https://brew.sh/), you can install Nx globally with these commands:
 
 ```shell
-npx nx init
+brew tap nrwl/nx
+brew install nx

+{% tab label="Node" %}
+
+If you have [Node installed](https://nodejs.org/en/download), you can install Nx globally with this command:
+
+```shell
+npm install --global nx

+## Usage
+
+You can install Nx in the `.nx/installation` directory of your repository by running `nx init` in a directory without a `package.json` file.
+
+```shell
+nx init
 ```
 
 When Nx is installed in `.nx`, you can run Nx via a global Nx installation or the nx and nx.bat scripts that were created. In either case, the wrapper (.nx/nxw.js) will be invoked and ensure that the current workspace is up to date prior to invoking Nx.
