Thank you, @raulrpearson.
So, darwin-x64 binaries work just as is on macs with the M1 chip too?
Yes, using Rosetta. It's pretty seamless as a user. The only downside is that x64 binaries tend to run a bit slower, although that usually isn't a deal breaker.
Node.js v16.0.0 will be the first release to ship prebuilt binaries for Apple Silicon. This commit modifies the logic to keep darwin-x64 binaries for older versions but use darwin-arm64 for v16 or higher. Fixes #158.
