actually it would seem quite clear for anyone fluent with Lazarus/FPC
(which is very similar to Delphi).
There is a wapt build recipe on the wapt store (lookup in the
update_package section) if you need a step by step compilation
instruction [1].
Thomas is adding a arm64 worker to the build configuration. The build
result should be online pretty soon.
We will do the polishing of the packaging later (deb/rpm packages,
signing of Windows binary + install package, signing / notarization of
macOS packages).
Cheers,
Denis
