PyCharm for iOS Download: Supporting M1 Chips

In recent times, there has been a growing demand for software that can seamlessly work with Apple's M1 chips. As a result, many developers are eager to know if their favorite IDEs support these new processors. In this article, we will focus on PyCharm and its compatibility with iOS devices.

M1 Support: The Challenges

Unfortunately, bringing the M1 support to Rider is a bit more complicated than it seems. The reason lies in the architecture of Rider itself. It consists of two main components - a frontend (IDEA) and a backend (ReSharper as a language service) connected via the RD protocol. This setup makes it challenging to move both parts to native M1 mode.

Progress Update

I want to thank Gideon Yuval and James Fisk for their interest in the M1 support in Rider. Unfortunately, I don't have good news to share yet regarding the availability of this feature. However, rest assured that we are working hard on bringing it to you as soon as possible.
