Re: [platform-dev] Eclipse on M1 Macbooks

I’ve been running Eclipse on an M1 MacBook Air under Rosetta translation with great success.

Porting SWT apps to run natively on Apple Silicon is going to be a bit thorny, because you have to go from 10.x to 11.x and the the margins and padding of various built-in UI components are not the same.

Hi all,

This is not really a Eclipse platform question. But i'm considering into switching into a Apple MacBook M1 or the upcoming M1X. But since i work with Eclipse, i would like to know if there are members who are already successfully developing on Eclipse using M1. Specially working on Eclipse contributions as well. 

The main reason for my consideration is the battery life and better CPU
Please share your recommendations and experience. 

Best regards,
Gayan.
