SlackKonto zweryfikowane

When I got my ASUS NovaGo from last years Build conference, I was amazed with the work that was done to make an ARM64 Windows 10 that I could use like my other computers. I could run .NET Core binaries, run WSL, hell even Visual Studio (expect suffering with NuGet and npm lol)

But one of the biggest things was the fact that I could easily compile something for ARM64 with little to no modification. Comparing the responsiveness to an emulated x86 app.. I saw that promise.

Its why I suffered through compiling Chromium for ARM64 then showed it off (big thanks to the team at Microsoft who put in the effort to get ARM64 supported , seriously thank you!). I wanted to show others how nice the apps that cast curses upon memory utilization could run.

I mean, even Electron supports ARM64 Windows now. My point is that ARM64 should be a default choice & promoted as such. Not another, "Hey. Here's 1 ARM64 app. The rest is x64, sorry lol". The Pro X is my FIRST Surface device. I'm in this. I need the heavy hitters to be also.

Does that mean Slack is running natively on ARM?

I don't think so. They would have to target ARM64 while building for Electron. They don't explicitly state that they've included support for it in the Slack app. @SlackHQ - Are there any plans to support a Windows on ARM version of Slack since Electron supports it?

Thanks for asking! ARM support is definitely on our radar, but unfortunately for this minute of this particular day, we don't have a timeline to share. Stay tuned!

Hi, just want to follow up on this. I'm on a 64bit ARM laptop (arch, not Windows) but would very much love a standalone app instead of having to open seven browser tabs just to have access to all of my communities.
