Hi! I would like to try napajs, but I have a question: Does it work with arm processor? Thank.

There is no special treatment for CPU architecture in Napa.js, but there was not any attempt to build it on ARM either.

Since V8 supported ARM, Napa.js should be straightforward. Right now due to limited bandwidth we cannot start the work right now. But if someone wants to contribute, we are more than happy to review the change and fix issues if found.

Happy New Year BTW!

I just tried it on A53 running node 6.12.3 and the native addon got compiled successfully. Tried to run the examples and they see to work !

So far it seems that it is compiling (did not see any warnings let alone errors) and running basic examples.

Good job guys !!

Great to hear @ksachdeva. You are more than welcome to share your process if there is additional work so others can benefit.
