https://facebook.github.io/watchman/docs/install#prebuilt-binaries-1 says "Download and extract the macOS release from the latest release", with a link to https://github.com/facebook/watchman/releases/latest. Currently, that redirects to https://github.com/facebook/watchman/releases/tag/v2024.03.18.00, which has no files of the form watchman-vYYYY.MM.DD.00-macos.zip.

Are they supposed to exist or is the documentation out of date?

RPM package for Fedora 39 is not also available.

Fedora (Prebuilt RPMs)

Warning: Do not install the Fedora-supplied Watchman package. It is old and missing security, bug, and performance fixes.

From the [latest release](https://github.com/facebook/watchman/releases/latest), download the .rpm corresponding to your Fedora version
sudo dnf localinstall watchman-$VERSION.fc$FEDORA_VERSION.x86_64.rpm
Confirm successful installation by running watchman version

I found a solution that we can get prebuilt binary from github actions artifacts.
eg: https://github.com/facebook/watchman/actions/runs/8959684395
Once the artifact is downloaded，use the follow command to extract binary to local folder

unzip -o watchman.zip
cp -vfR watchman/mac/bin/* /usr/local/bin/
cp -vfR watchman/mac/lib/* /usr/local/lib/
chmod  x /usr/local/bin/watchman*
watchman watch-del-all

FYI homebrew build still works great for me https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/blob/9a6fbb3755ba09ebb82fa4f0dbdfa0ce15a4b9d1/Formula/w/watchman.rb
