Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/AppFlowy-IO/AppFlowy/issues/26

Hi there! I loved the design of the app ♥️
One of the problems I've encountered is that it runs under Rosetta 2 on my laptop, which is undesirable, mainly because smoothness suffers and so does the battery life. Is there any way to compile Rust+Dart app into a Universal app?

@FallenChromium Absolutely yes, but the size of the application will be larger. I can build one for M1. Please let me know how you think about it.

@FallenChromium commented on GitHub (Nov 18, 2021):

It's absolutely fine to have 2 separate releases for each architecture (like most utils on Homebrew do, anyway), so I think it's a viable solution.

That said, it's always a compromise. I can see Universal App being easier to distribute but more painful to build (especially in an automated fashion). Separating targets and release products can also be a pain in the back, especially when other arches and\or platforms will join (win_x64, win_arm64, linux_x64, linux_arm64, you probably already imagined that giant GitHub Releases file list 🤣)

@pdckxd commented on GitHub (Nov 20, 2021):

Seems flutter doesn't support build application for native Apple M1 chip. Below wiki page shows that M1 can run X86_64 application through Rosetta2 at this moment. So you will see Intel arch in "Activity Monitor" when running appflowy on MacOS

https://github.com/flutter/flutter/wiki/Developing-with-Flutter-on-Apple-Silicon

Compiled Intel macOS binaries work on Apple Silicon without change thanks to the Rosetta 2 translation environment, which converts x86_64 instructions to ARM64 equivalents.
We also plan to offer support for compilation directly to ARM64, as well as universal binaries that combine x86_64 and ARM64 assets. Issue 60113 is the umbrella bug tracking this work.

I have the same appeal, I hope I can have M1 version applications.

Is there any news about native ARM build support ?
In the documentation in Building on MacOS -> Building in release mode, there is arm64 command, but it still doesn't work.

It seems Flutter recently released apple silicon support. I hope it's generic ARM64 so I can run on M1 Studio as well as low-end devices like the raspberry pi.

If there are tests or it's a matter of configuring a build, I'm in BST London, and happy to take the time to use my hardware to build on an M1 and host while the github process for building is worked out.

@Tienisto commented on GitHub (Jul 11, 2023):

Shouldn't flutter build macos build an universal build by default? I am maintainer of LocalSend and I did not do anything to ensure M1 support.

Maybe an ARM based computer is needed though...

It's not the same commands @Tienisto (I think due to the Rust and other commands); but it looks like https://appflowy.gitbook.io/docs/essential-documentation/contribute-to-appflowy/software-contributions/environment-setup/building-on-macos has cli options for arm64; so I guess for me; this was all I wanted.

This has led to https://github.com/flutter/flutter/issues/130308 on a new mac I don't want to use appleId for, but it feels like that is a me problem.

We do not see that we still have not been installed on ARM, even the built -in docker is not show that.
