Mostly we aren't doing heavy installs of brew casks but tweaking installs. (I think I first installed brew in 2010.)

https://formulae.brew.sh has the list of possibles, and each page will show you what it can be used on.

E.g., the rather cool static site generator in Swift: https://formulae.brew.sh/formula/publish

Sure, but I haven't done anything that ambitious with it. There is a github repository and there are plenty of scripts up on there if you look for them.
