Apple Silicon Native Version (M1 & M2)

[BramEsposito]

I have looked into bringing Gas Mask to Apple Silicon.

This is what needs to be done:

• refactor from Garbage Collection to ARC
• remove all x86 specific target config
• update Sparkle pod
• update ShortcutRecorder pod
• refactor MainHostsController Singleton to another solution
• create Dark Mode visuals
• remove Growl dependency
• remove BGHUDAppKit framework dependency
• implement an alternative for the HUD display (popover?)
• fix Predicate Controller layout
• increase minimum required version for macOS 10.11
• create a new production build

I'm working on https://github.com/BramEsposito/gasmask/tree/apple-silicon and will create a pull request when I'm done.

If anyone can create a production build afterwards, I don't have a Developer account at the moment.

Thank you for looking into it. It would be great if you can create separate PR-s for all those to make review process smoother.

[BramEsposito]

Ok, I'll keep that in mind!

master branch now at least works again on the latest Xcode.
I'm working on getting it to run on arm

[2ndalpha]

@BramEsposito I took the liberty to update your post and mark checked the tasks that are done

As per #216 it seems we should have an ARM build around somewhere... Is this true and, if so, where can we find it?

How do I download a dmg which is up to date with master? The only ones I see in releases are from 2020

[2ndalpha]

The master is broken and not usable at the moment

hi @2ndalpha
any updates on an useable m1 build?
thanks

Apple announced that it is deprecating Rosetta. So now would be a good time to get this conversion finished ;)

I have started working on Hedit: https://github.com/valtlfelipe/hedit. It's not fully native since it uses Tauri, but it's fast and has ARM builds.

Still a work in progress!
