@cortinico I searched my google history and found Warning: Failed to find package 'emulator' arm64 which should be the error I had back in march. It seems there are now workarounds for the problem https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71545278/install-build-tools-on-arm64-doesnt-work, if somebody wants to give it a shot.

[kaloudis]

Yes, please. Performance via emulation on M1 is terrible.

[kaelite]

Yes, please!

Here is my try on creating a new docker image based on ubuntu:

However the problem is, that the Android AVD emulator is not available for arm64 architecture and fails to install

[cortinico]

that the Android AVD emulator is not available for arm64 architecture and fails to install

What's the failure message?

[Legion2]

I do not remember what the exact failure was, but I know it was some android tooling which did not work on arm64 and there were no workarounds, so I stopped working on it.

[EyMaddis]

Did somebody achieve this?

[hamzafer]

Any updates on this?

[Alaa-Ben]

I'm interested in news about this too :D

[dgrezza]

any update guys ? seem it will be helpful to speedup the build time
