Apple silicon issues Arch BOM maintain devstack within 2u and we are trying to address the myriad Apple silicon issues What did Tutor do? Ghassan: Had trouble with MFEs, new tutor has better support for the ARM q: what was the trouble with mfes? a: tutor builds all the MFEs all at once https://github.com/openedx/wg-developer-experience/issues/35 https://github.com/openedx/wg-developer-experience/issues/81
Regis: Recently set up an ARM64 CI for tutor plugins which hit many issues We used to not provide ARM images for Tutor, but starting from Palm we do. Not yet providing images for the nightly branch, but it’s on the list of things we will probably do Tutor users have to build docker images a lot. Course authoring MFE could not build on ARM because of a missing library dependency (libpng-dev or something). You can see this change on the palm branch of the tutor MFE plugin Building images takes a long time. Building on ARM was using emulation, which took a long time. New build speed (and new ARM images) improves this Running MFEs in development: tutor runs all mfes with npm run build , which is resource-heavy and even moreso on ARM with emulation. It makes machines go boom. https://github.com/overhangio/tutor-mfe/issues/125
Regardless of devstack vs tutor, there are still issues in the edx-platform itself that make running on ARM difficult, eg forums The expectation of supporting ARM came kind of suddenly
