Description

It would be highly beneficial to create a wheel file for the Macaron Python package that support ARM architecture. Currently, ARM support is partially supported for Docker images, which limits users on ARM-based systems from easily installing and using Macaron. By adding ARM-compatible wheels, users that do not use the Macaron Docker image can quickly install Macaron on ARM platforms without the need for manual compilation.

Proposed Feature

The feature would involve building and publishing .whl files for Macaron that are compatible with ARM architectures (such as ARM64). These files should be available through GitHub releases.

Use Case

Improved compatibility: users with ARM-based machines (e.g., Apple M1/M2 chips, ARM-based servers) would be able to install Macaron without facing issues related to compatibility.

Enhanced user experience: it would streamline the installation process and reduce friction for users who are currently unable to use Macaron on ARM-based systems.

Broader adoption: adding ARM support would open up the tool to a wider range of users, helping to grow the Macaron community.
