ARM build?

+1 for ARM for my chromebook medion s2015… with chrouton (chroot debian jessie), xfce and soon google play store it is the perfect portable machine for some development and scripting… would love to use sublime instead of pluma

[thetechnobear]

+1 for ARM

Im a crossplatform developer, so use sublime on macOS/Windows and Linux, and love it…
I really miss it when I jump over to PI and other SOC platforms to do some dev.

Id be willing to pay extra for it, or back a kickstarter project.

+1 for ARM build

I have to develop software for Raspberry Pi and I miss my favorite editor.

what we need is to clone 2 or 3 of you first

Sublime for Raspberry Pi would be very cool, but honestly I don’t get where’s the problem. I’m using Sublime right now to write code on my RPi: Sublime runs on my laptop, and it saves the source files on the RPi through the SFTP plugin. I could also use sshfs, NFS or even samba. To run the compiler I can set the project to execute it using ssh, or I can run it on the RPi using a simple terminal.

Just my 2c.

One can also use a cross-compiler to compile on the host X86 machine to an ARM architecture. This is the sane choice when you don’t want your builds to take hours. There are various docker images available to make this process easier.

Adding my support for an ARM build. I’ve been looking at the new Pinebook, but due to its architecture, it wouldn’t be able to run Sublime. I’m really hoping news on this changes before they get more Pinebook Pros in stock.

It would be awesome to have an ARM build of Sublime to be able to run it on a Raspberry Pi.

Yet another long-time, licensed ST user here

It’s been almost 8 years since this was first requested. ARM computers are getting more and more common. The recently-released Raspberry Pi 4 is considered a full desktop replacement (and in fact it’s currently my only computer after years of using ST on both Macs and Linux machines )

As many others have said above, I’d be willing to back a kickstarter project or pay for an additional license to help fund the necessary work.

Can this feature request get considered again?

[c0debabe]

Just got a Pinebook Pro. Absolutely love it. Really hoping you will consider an ARM build that would be compatible.

[manueljperez]

Same here.

Looking forward to an ARM build to use on my brand new Pinebook Pro.

[alenesse]

Using a Surface Pro X here, would really love an ARM build. Holding off on buying a license until one releases.

Bumping the arm64/aarch64 build request.

Many of the problems with fragmentation in the 32-bit arm world have been solved with the 64-bit ports. Given a standard arm machine, running a uefi firmware, these machines are capable of acting like normal PCs and installing a wide variety of OS’s which in turn provide the same developer experience as one gets with x86 machines. Mostly gone are the requirements to hack build processes/etc as these machines are now available as cloud instances at AWS/Packet/etc capable of CI loops/etc rather than one-off hacked raspbian/whatever builds. Put another way, Arm has been working hard to create a consistent and functional ecosystem so that small developers don’t have to.

http://www.worksonarm.com is a good place to start if your looking for developer support (although its oriented towards open source, the people behind it are willing to help port anything).

(Just be warned that many of the small SBC’s aren’t yet SBSA/SBBR complaint so they have many of the traditional arm problems (AKA I don’t imagine a software company like sublime wants to build their own firmware in order to develop their products)).

I would really like to have ARM64 support in Sublime Text.

I’m already a licensed user, but would be willing to buy another license just for this feature.
I’d also be willing to sponsor some development ARM64 hardware if needed.

We have done quite a lot of work on the Pinebook Pro (a new ARM64 / rk3399-based Linux laptop) which is still missing a great text editor. Sublime Text would be perfect, lightweight and stable.

I have the same problem, just bought Pinebook Pro and there is not much to write with - apart from terminal there is pluma, mousepad and probably VSCode. What do you use?

[axelthegerman]

My company is even willing to pay for my Sublime Text license. But without ARM support I can’t use it on my Pinebook Pro - I don’t feel like using two different editors every day.

I know VS code doesn’t have an official build yet either but due to being open source https://code.headmelted.com so far works great on my PBP

8 years and counting… 25k views - still doesn’t seem important enough?

I even email ST sales email and they kindly pointed me here to “add your voice to the dedicated feature request page” which doesn’t seem to make a difference

I ave been using Sublime Text forever, I would love to be able to use it on my Pinebook Pro as well.

Adding more fuel for the fire here. Have been a Sublime Text license holder for for nearly ten years and love the fact that I can use it on every system I’ve been developing on, windows, linux, mac. I’ve recently added a Jetson Nano to my toolbox and found that I can no longer use Sublime Text. As a paying customer, it would be great to at least see some response in the form of a development roadmap or simply a “not doing” statement. My Sublime Text 4 license purchase (along with many other license purchases at my company) hinges on this issue.
