Why you might care
Install Python 3.13 alongside other Python versions (3.10, 3.11, 3.12) for version-specific virtual environments, testing, or forward compatibility.

Caveats
Python is installed as $HOMEBREW_PREFIX/bin/python3.13 Unversioned and major-versioned symlinks `python`, `python3`, `python-config`, `python3-config`, `pip`, `pip3`, etc. pointing to `python3.13`, `python3.13-config`, `pip3.13` etc., respectively, are installed into $HOMEBREW_PREFIX/opt/python@3.13/libexec/bin If you do not need a specific version of Python, and always want Homebrew's `python3` in your PATH: brew install python3 `idle3.13` requires tkinter, which is available separately: brew install python-tk@3.13 `dbm.gnu` is available separately: brew install python-gdbm@3.13 For more information about Homebrew and Python, see: https://docs.brew.sh/Homebrew-and-Python
