ARM64 Support

Apologies if I have missed something whilst searching this repository, but are there any thoughts/plans for arm64 support for the desktop wallet app?

Might this be a duplicate of this issue? https://github.com/digitalbitbox/bitbox-wallet-app/issues/1266

Probably largely related, although I use a non-Apple Arm64 workstation.

@x1ddos do you remember which part of the tech stack wasn't supported on arm64?

All stack is supported on the regular, non-apple arm64. I once built the app on @thisconnect's pinebook - just added appropriate targets for libserver and qt in makefiles.

Apple's arm OTOH is different. Our main problem at the moment is Qt support. Upstream issue: https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-85279.

Including QtWebEngine? The whole app compiled and ran fine?

well, i didn't build the Qt lib - used qt5-devel or something, packages provided by the distribution. so, given the distro has qt5 lib packages, it must be possible to build qt5 for arm64 from source.
