Is aarch64 (ARM64) supported ?

[MarcusE1W]

Hi I was trying to build grain on a Pinebook Pro and got an error message.

That made me think, is grain supposed to work with aarch64 at all or is it not supported in the moment ?

So does that mean I can’t build it from source ? Still not clear. Anyway..

Building it from source should work. What's the error you're getting?

Esy doesn't currently ship an arm binary for Linux
