I imagine it won't take long for something as widely used as the JVM to be compiled directly for the M1 instead of relying on Rosetta. :)



Ironically Microsoft just released a beta arm version of the JVM for Mac.

I wasn't aware of this. Can you provide a link?



They have, unfortunately it's a bit crashy in what looks new non-platform specific code.


Does the M1 deviate enough from standard ARM64 to need a recompile?


Oh! Probably not; that's a good point. I don't know why it didn't occur to me that, of course, there's already an ARM-compatible JVM haha. Thanks!


Wow I wonder if these new Macs are going to be the new standard for iOS and Android development, since you can run your apps for both ecosystems natively.


The JVM is a bit lacking on ARM64. I’m still seeing super-basic intrinsics being added to the compilers.


Yes, it would need to be build for Darwin.


How is that result with Windows on ARM laptops?
