[ghost]

Platform: Windows 10 on ARM64 (19044.1415) Nuclear version: / Description of the issue: No available version of nuclear is compatible with Windows 10 on ARM Windows 10 on arm supports the following executables:

• 32bit x86
• ARM64

Would it be possible to provide a build for this platform ?

We use electron-builder, and I don't see such a configuration option: https://www.electron.build/configuration/win#WindowsConfiguration-target

I found this https://www.electron.build/cli and this https://github.com/electron-userland/electron-builder/pull/5558. I don't really understand whats going on but i added the --arm64 flag to the windows build script. The build looked good initially but failed later on my side because i was builing on a linux ARM64 host which seems unsupported by electron-builder.

output:

Never mind, i found the folder release\win-arm64-unpacked after the build. The release inside works on my machine.

Nice, then in this case this should only be the matter of adding a flag to the build action so we can generate one more artifact.

Just kicking the can further down the road.

This would need to be a little bit more involved: https://github.com/marketplace/actions/run-on-architecture We'd need a separate build step to build on arm64, and then include it in the final list of windows binaries.
