Tagging @harveenSingh as he can likely tackle this soon.

This is a great idea. Will work on it.

Closing this in favor of the Mac binary that @harveenSingh has built out in the euc repository.

The main benefit is that the binary is bundled with other pieces of ecosystem tooling and software for easier maintenance across the board. The downside is that users won't be able to download and install Hermes via the brew install command; however a Mac binary is perhaps just as professional as a homebrew tap.
