I just started a new job, and they gave me a Mac pro to work with. I was reading about the new M1 processor and everything, I found this article particularly useful.

However, I still have one doubt about it. If I didn’t misunderstand, in the article they suggest using either Anaconda (with Rosetta2 translation), OR to install Miniforge, which sets conda-forge as default and only channel, in order to download packages compiled specifically for the M1. I found different tutorials, and they all suggest using Miniforge to install packages on the M1.

My question is…can’t I just use Anaconda, and set conda-forge as the only installation channel, to get M1-compiled packages, like it would do with Miniforge? Or am I misunderstanding something? Thanks!

There are currently only 64 bit installers for anaconda. All that come along it will be 64bit. All modules installed will be targeted for 64 bit and conda will download 64bit modules. You cannot install arm modules to a 64 bit conda installation. You will need to decide:

  1. "Convenience" (very subjective) of anaconda, i.e. getting a bunch of pre installed packages targeted for 64 bit
  2. An installation specific for your architecture with possible speed and other advantages
