Compile an arm64 build for macOS

Open liamdawson opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

I'm using an M1 Macbook now, and I noticed that DevHub is a bit of an outlier for CPU usage on my machine. I also noticed that it doesn't offer an arm64 build for macOS, so I thought I'd try my hand at making one.

I built a local version of the app from https://github.com/devhubapp/devhub/releases/tag/v0.102.0 using this approach, so you should be able to backport it and cut a new release from that tag (or just build the arm64 artifacts) if you were so inclined.

(I managed to build a universal binary, but that increased the size of the .dmg by ~40%, which felt like an unreasonable amount of overhead)

I feel like the non-arm version is using a significant amount of battery when unplugged, does this help resolve that?

Is there any plans to merge this anytime soon? Just switched to an M1 Macbook and would love to see this.
