When livecheck isn't given instructions for how to check for upstream versions, it does the following by default:
1. For __formulae__: Collect the `stable`, `head` and `homepage` URLs, in that order. For __casks__: Collect the `appcast`, `url` and `homepage` URLs, in that order. For __resource__: Collect the `url` (since resource's url is considered `stable` by default)
2. Determine if any strategies apply to the first URL. If not, try the next URL.
3. If a strategy can be applied, use it to check for new versions.
4. Return the newest version (or an error if versions could not be found at any available URLs).

1. Return the newest version (or an error if versions could not be found at any available URLs).
It's sometimes necessary to override this default behavior to create a working check. If a source doesn't provide the newest version, we need to check a different one. If livecheck doesn't correctly match version text, we need to provide an appropriate regex or `strategy` block.

2. **Research available sources to select a URL**. Try removing the file name from `stable`/`url`, to see if this is a directory listing page. If that doesn't work, try to find a page that links to the file (e.g. a download page). If it's not possible to find the newest version on the website, try checking other sources from the formula/cask. When necessary, search for other sources outside of the formula/cask.

3. **Create a regex, if necessary**. If the check works without a regex and wouldn't benefit from having one, it's usually fine to omit it. More information on creating regexes can be found in the [regex guidelines](#regex-guidelines) section.
