ARM64 Windows Support #647
Description
Current behavior
Emulated in 32 bit windows emulator
Expected behavior
A native build would be great since Electron recently added 64 bit support for ARM64 :)
Load in ARM64, however, it loads in the emulation layer, leading to a lack of battery loss.
Steps to reproduce
Are the binaries open to compile it for ARM64, so that there can be unofficial releases.
Environment
ARM64 for Windows10
Desktop/Web
- Boost Note.next version: 0.9.0
- OS version and name: Windows 10

I don't have an arm64 windows pc. But I'm sure that adding
arm64toarchshould work. Do you think you can test the building?arm64to here https://github.com/BoostIO/BoostNote.next/blob/master/package.json#L250-L253.envfile and setBOOST_HUB_BASE_URL=https://boostnote.io.Then you will get an executable so you can run it in your pc.

Hi, yes it works
-> Tested on M1 Mac w the M1 Chip.. Is there a way to fix that?
However, there are signing issues, but I believe that is due to the unofficial port that we would be building is that right?

@justrach Thanks for testing then we should provide build for arm64 too.
electron-userland/electron-builder#5426 seems electron builder is supporting the apple silicon chip so I think we can try the same trick on M1 Mac.

/attempt #647
I found the Windows build config still only targets
x64andia32. I am addingarm64to the Electron Builder Windows target list inpackage.json, keeping the change scoped to packaging so the existing x64 and ia32 outputs remain unchanged.Local validation so far:
["x64", "ia32", "arm64"]npm ci --ignore-scriptsnpm testgit diff --checkTransparency: AI-assisted with Codex; I reviewed the diff and validation output before submitting.
