PHP, Ruby, and Python work natively and are available to install with brew.

I also tried an Nginx docker image and it worked - not sure about apache. I usually don't install those locally as I run them with docker.

Some things like mysql are not ported yet but should work through the Rosetta 2 translation layer.

Cool ... maybe "brew install from source" works in those cases where no native 'bottle' is available yet (mysql) ?

Haven't tried this only with node when I needed an issue fixed that was not published yet.

Basically, it should work as long as it can compile on arm. For MySQL I just checked and it runs on the new chip
