    Homebrew software is unofficial/non-commercial software for systems which were originally set up with proprietary software (like gaming console or in this case car OSs).

      That’s the definition for games consoles specifically, I know you pulled it from wiki :)

      Every computer that comes preinstalled with windows also falls under your definition though as does any Mac.

      Linux was also developed for or spurned by a system that was proprietary and only for educational purposes MINIX.
