Apple M1 chip support with f7 apps

Questions
1

Has anyone had any problems working with M1 chip Macbooks when developing Framework7 version7 apps (with vite bundler)?
I’m planning to buy these new Macbooks beacause my current one (macOS 10.12.6) does not support installing esbuild, so I can’t create new apps

2

I do have MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Mid 2014) with macOS 11.6.5 and no issues so far.

nvm - 0.39.1
npm - 8.8.0
node - v18.1.0
npx - 8.8.0
yarn - 1.22.18

Good Luck!

Yours must be fine. I’m talking about the new Macbooks with M1 chips, starting from Macbook Pro 2020 13-inch and all the 2021 ones

Why doesn’t it support installing esbuild on your current config?

5

When running npm install esbuild installation fails because it is written in Golang and in their official download page they only support MacOS 10.13 and above. My environment is 10.12.6

I’m using an M1 Mac with Monterey 12.3.1. Everything works perfectly. Using node installed via homebrew.

Have also been using Capacitor to deploy to iOS & Android without issue.
