[Feature Request]: Check /Applications to see if the requested application is there before getting from Homebrew #19

Description

@primitivoJordan

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

Currently when you try to install an application (at least VS Code and Brave -- tested those) the steps are:

  1. Check if already installed by Homebrew
  2. Get application from Homebrew
  3. Check if application already exists in /Applications

If 'yes' at step 3 then the downloaded application is removed and the user informed.

Describe the solution you'd like

It would be more efficient if we checked if the application exists in /Applications before getting from Homebrew.

Describe alternatives you've considered
