What are the dev challenges with M1/ARM Macbooks ?

Any difficulties you experience while developing/debugging in your local dev env since Mac shifted from x86/Intel to M1/ARM processors?
Does that affect your dev workflow?

With Rosetta, you'll have nearly no problem. This is better each days.

Just some Docker containers can be a challenge (I see you CosmosDb). Even if the container was built on a x64 arch, it will works.

If you dev in the web, no problem. :)

I don't think there are any huge problems anymore the compatibility is significantly better now with native M1 applications available.
