@parcel/watcher on FreeBSD ARM? (No prebuild or local build of @parcel/watcher found.)

[phips]

Hello,

I'm using tailwindcss with Hugo, and @parcel/watcher is a dependancy. The system is FreeBSD 14.2 on an ARM processor.

I see FreeBSD is supported fine, but I don't see ARM support. Is this the case, or have I just missed something? Is watcher compilable locally at install time (I couldn't seem to find a way to do that — but that might be just a lack of looking).

Error: No prebuild or local build of @parcel/watcher found. Tried @parcel/watcher-freebsd-arm64. Please ensure it is installed (don't use --no-optional when installing with npm). Otherwise it is possible we don't support your platform yet. If this is the case, please report an issue to https://github.com/parcel-bundler/watcher.

Happy to be pointed in the right direction if I'm missing something. If it's not currently supported, I'm happy to help remedy that.

Thanks :)

The same issue with Mac on M1 with @parcel/watcher-darwin-arm64. When I tried to install @parcel/watcher-darwin-arm64 - Unsupported platform for @parcel/watcher-darwin-arm64@2.5.1: wanted {"os":"darwin","arch":"arm64"} (current: {"os":"darwin","arch":"x64"})

Hmm, strange. It's OK on my M1 Max MacBook.

The lack of FreeBSD on Arm just looks like it's not in the build.

That built OK, but I'm sure I'm half-assing it, and there's a lot more to it. It would be ace if freebsd-arm could be added relatively simply though 😄

I need also this upstream for tailwindcss 4.x in Elixir/Phoenix. It
looks like we have suitable support in vm-actions for aarch64
FreeBSD: https://github.com/vmactions/freebsd-vm, let's try a PR.

Also having the same thing on M1 macOS!

I also need it on FreeBSD aarch64

[MikaelUrankar]

Can we get a binary for FreeBSD aarch64 please?
