Since then, I have had two Macbook Pros using an Apple Silicon processor (M1). I wrote this originally in 2021 to keep track of what I need to start when setting up a new laptop. It's 2023, and I am still coming back to this article. In 2023, I decided to re-write this article from scratch. Since then, it has been updated many times to reflect my setup process. gatsby-cli To build and test out my personal blog built with Gatsby.🕑 This article was originally written on March 14, 2021.

General > Working Directory > select Advanced Configuration > click button Edit. Make sure to have the following setting configured from Recently I started using Jetbrains Mono font.įor the overall looks and appearance, I use Dracula Pro Color Presets created by Zen Rocha.Īnd my last favorite thing is to split the working directory into two more different tabs using Command + D for horizontal panes. Now, if you open the second terminal, it will be using Rosetta 2 emulator by default. In the General, check the box where it says Open using Rosetta. Right-click the duplicated app and click Get Info. I have renamed it to iTerm_rosetta to differentiate between the two. If you'd like a similar setup, go to the Applications folder in your Macbook and duplicate the iTerm application.
There are no performance issues I have found with using iTerm with Rosetta 2 for ARM-based applications. This way, I can only use the Rosetta 2 emulator when required. One with Rosetta 2 enabled and the default one. I am currently using two versions of iTerm on my setup. My favorite terminal app that I have been using for years is iTerm.

#ITERM2 M1 UPGRADE#
Don't get me wrong here, M1 is not cheap either as I did go for a RAM upgrade to max limits, which is currently 16GB in the base model.Īfter going through some online reviews and research, the kind of performance I was expecting has been worth it so far (it is fast, no doubt). I had a long internal discussion with myself for almost a month about whether I should upgrade to M1 or stick with Intel-based chips and spend them bucks. December 2020 was the time I decided its time to upgrade.
#ITERM2 M1 ANDROID#
I had long given up using the Android emulator and used an actual Android device for testing. The performance to run heavy tasks like using the iOS simulator when developing and working on React Native apps was declining.
My four-year-old Macbook Air was giving up. I recently upgraded from Macbook Air 2017 to Macbook Pro with an M1 chip.
#ITERM2 M1 UPDATE#
While setting up the new laptop, I thought it is an excellent time to update this post. The Macbook Pro M1 I was using crashed and stopped working without any reason on August 25, 2021. Note: Most of this article was updated in August 2021.
