Great to see the launch of GitHub runners for Windows on Arm. It's been a long journey, but great to have this really important feature available now.
Give it a spin - add runs-on: windows-11-arm, update the build to target Arm and go!

Pretty good summary of Windows on Arm state of play highlighting changes in SW landscape for Arm, which is making more and more sense as a developer device - light, long battery, lots of power... code anywhere, for as long as you want! :)

Really nice to see some cool products picking up Arm native support via EC! Big thanks to @Pete_Brown for the original article on Arm64EC.

[David Viens @plgDavid]

Adding ARM64X support for our chipsynth line was a pretty fun side project to take the stress off the crunch for a week. The ARM64EC/x64 compatibility layer is pretty wild: allowing existing x64 hosts to load ARM64 optimized binaries. Details: https://t.co/tjJWujW4Ik @Pete_Brown
