Compiling for SBCs (Raspberry Pi etc)

Hi Niels,
It's great to see how AP is developing.
I know I raised this question before a few years ago (?) but is there any chance of AP being compiled to work on Arm processors so it can be run on the 4GB+ Raspberry Pi's?  Given the potential size of the user base, especially in educational and home environments, I still see this as a great opportunity to encourage children to take up animation (especially as it would fit in well with STE(A)M).

Hi Animation. Thanks for your questions (again) 🙂

Recently we have spend a lot of time upgrading internal libraries etc. So to my knowledge it should in fact be doable to do a Linux Arm build. But I will have to ask my lead programmer to be sure. I will be back...

Cheers,
Niels

He confirms! It should be doable. So we'll see if we can get an Arm version for Linux done within this current beta period. Thanks again for bringing it up!

Best,
Niels
