[Qgis-user] New Apple Macintosh ARM Chipsets

[Saber Razmjooei]

Hi

We have already ported QGIS to iOS for Input app (https://inputapp.io and
https://github.com/lutraconsulting/input-sdk/tree/master/ios). iOS is ARM
based architecture. Hence, it should be possible and straightforward to
support the new mac ARM too. It also depends on the upstream support from
Apple, Qt, Python...

Kind regards
Saber
