It doesn’t have curl installed.

The curl there on the command line is just for downloading the Brave installation script.

The curl command is an open source command line tool used to transfer data to or from a server using various protocols. It is widely used on Linux and other operating systems for tasks such as downloading files, uploading data and testing web APIs.

To install curl:

sudo apt install curl

After installed, you can run the script to install brave over command line / terminal.
