You just use brew install tomcat as mentioned in the answer above.

Should you want to edit configurations or add a web application to the Tomcat you downloaded in Homebrew, the files (a.k.a. "kegs" kept in the "Cellar") will normally be in one of the following directories:

  • /usr/local/Cellar/<Your-Tomcat-Folder> (Intel based machines)
  • /opt/homebrew/Cellar/<Your-Tomcat-Folder> (Apple Silicon machines)

(note: the specific Homebrew prefix is stored in the $HOMEBREW_PREFIXvariable)

Should you want to run Tomcat, you just use the catalina run or just do catalina and it will show you all the parameters you can use with Tomcat.

Alternatively using Homebrew, you could first install services with

brew tap homebrew/services

then start/stop/restart Tomcat with

brew services start tomcat

and so on.
