alt Hacker NewsSurprised to see that there's no official binaries for arm64 darwin. Meaning macOS users will have to run it through the Rosetta 2 translation layer.

Just hit this too:

The reason I was interested, was adding the new tool to arkade (similar to Brew, but more developer/devops focused - downloads binaries)
The agent found no Arm binaries.. and it seemed like an odd miss for a core tool
I’d install it via cargo anyway and that would build it for arm64.
If the arm64 version was on homebrew (didn’t check if it is but assume not because it’s not mentioned on the page), I’d install it from there rather than from cargo.
I don’t really manually install binaries from GitHub, but it’s nice that the author provides binaries for several platforms for people that do like to install it that way.
Really? That is your response? This is an high quality article from someone who spend a lot of time implementing a cool tool and also sharing the intricate inner workings of it. And your response is, "eh there are no official binaries for my platform". Give them some credit! Be a little more constructive!
OP here: Releases have been updated! Also someone was kind enough to package it in Homebrew already :) https://github.com/micahkepe/jsongrep/pull/22
