## Apple M1 support
## Apple silicon support

At the moment the new Apple Silicon Macs released in November 2020, like the [MacBook Pro 13"](https://www.apple.com/macbook-pro-13/), [MacBook Air](https://www.apple.com/macbook-air/) and [Mac mini](https://www.apple.com/mac-mini/) models with the [Apple M1](https://www.apple.com/mac/m1/) chip do not have native builds. But the Arduino Agent performs well in [Rosetta 2 mode](https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211861).
The Arduino Agent is supported both on Intel and Apple silicon computers. This includes devices with the M1, M2 and M3 processors.
At the moment the Arduino Agent is only built for Intel architectures, but Apple silicon devices can run it thanks to the [Rosetta 2](https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211861) translation layer by Apple.
