Create an arm64 version for Linux

calejvaldez opened this issue · 1 comments

Problem Description

Linux on ARM is starting to gain some kind of traction, but Zulip doesn't include an arm64 version. I understand we could just build this ourselves with the open-source code, but I think it should also be added on the Zulip downloads page for Linux.

Proposed Solution

Add a build of Zulip for Linux arm64 on the Downloads page.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I downloaded the source code from GitHub and created an arm64 tar.gz file. This works fine.

Additional context

For others with this issue, Flathub has an aarch64 build. I guess it's enough to close this issue? At least for me.
