Linux Desktop on Apple Silicon in Practice

Linux Desktop on Apple Silicon in Practice

NOTE: Time flies, and it's been almost five years(!) since I wrote this. Beaware the text below is now outdated (e.g., now Asahi Linux has graphics acceleration even better than this). The commands listed are up-to-date.

I bought M1 MacBook Air. It is the fastest computer I have, and I have been a GNOME/GNU/Linux user for long time. It is obvious conclusion that I need practical Linux desktop environment on Apple Silicon.

Zig in 30 minutes

A half-hour to learn Zig

This is inspired by https://fasterthanli.me/blog/2020/a-half-hour-to-learn-rust/

Basics

the command zig run my_code.zig will compile and immediately run your Zig program. Each of these cells contains a zig program that you can try to run (some of them contain compile-time errors that you can comment out to play with)

extension UIHostingController {
convenience public init(rootView: Content, ignoreSafeArea: Bool) {
self.init(rootView: rootView)
if ignoreSafeArea {
disableSafeArea()
}
}
func disableSafeArea() {
