In June 2020, Apple announced a two-year plan to transition the CPUs in its Macintosh line of computers from Intel’s x86-64 processors to Apple-designed chips that use the ARM64 architecture. In addition to targeting future Java versions, Azul has made OpenJDK builds of currently popular Java versions, including Zulu builds of OpenJDK 8, 11, and 13, as well as 16-ea, widely available for use on Apple Silicon, Arm-based Macs. We can install it through Rosetta 2 without any prompts in automatically way.Geertjan is Senior Director of Open Source Projects at Azul and Apache NetBeans PMC Chair.Īzul has been leading the OpenJDK community effort ( JEP 391) initiated in August 2020 to add support for Apple Silicon, Arm-based Macs, in future versions of OpenJDK. There is no insider version for M1 processors. Even installation can not be completed, because it’s written for x86 architecture. Google Cloud SDKĪnd it’s not adopted too. Let’s suppose we decided to use GCP, the first task that should be done - Google Cloud SDK installation. You don’t need to have installed Docker and it’s absolutely production-ready.ĭetailed instructions can be found in GCP documentation. Google gives 120 free minutes each day for building your containers. Probably you won’t meet any issues, but I decided to move my projects to the Google Cloud Build.

We can download the tech preview version. And on the official site, you can find information, that it’s not recommended to use in production. Now we have everything mandatory for development, but what about deployment? Dockerĭocker for Apple M1 is currently under development. You just need to install the latest version. If your primary IDE is WebStorm, you are lucky, JetBrains already adopted it. Probably when you will read this article, Microsoft will probably release a stable ARM version, and you won’t need Insider. By feelings, it launches minimum 2x times faster.
