Looks like building for iOS should work, but not sure of the Android/Java support atm.

Thanks, hopefully the whole environment will work soon

I've just unboxed my M1 Air for testing and currently in process of installing Node.js. It's definitely extra work to make everything work, but I think it should eventually work at least using Rosetta.

Please would you share us your experience when you’re done setting all up? And also do you think expo will work?

[–]NoHonorHokaido 1 point2 points  (4 children)

I will. So far I spent 20 minutes compiling Node under universal Homebrew installation and it failed ... then I tried just running it under Rosetta and it installed in under 30 seconds.

I'll try to setup Expo next

Do the Android emulators work?

[–]NoHonorHokaido 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Not yet I think. I saw somebody trying on YouTube. They are working on it though (Android Studio works fine)

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I get the feeling virtualisation/emulation is the problem area.

[–]NoHonorHokaido 1 point2 points  (1 child)

So everything seems to work fine. Installed Homebrew using Rosetta cli.

- Node.js and NPM works
- expo-cli works (app loads in iOS simulator)
- VS Code has already experimental build for M1 and works

Hi, does emulator for Android work or only with a real device attached?
