As a Windows on ARM user, I want to be able to use IDEasy so that I can automate my IDE.
Currently we do not provide releases for Windows on ARM.
However, as a new trend, Microsoft has massively improved support for ARM architecture in Windows 11 (24H2).
New laptops with Snapdragon X Elite arrived on the market.
Currently the percentage of ARM for Windows users might still be low but this is going to change and ARM will become much more relevant also for Windows, especially since the ARM CPUs are very efficient and that means longer lasting battery and less fan-noise on laptops.
With GraalVM and our deployment builds it should be no big deal to add windows-arm releases of IDEasy.

UPDATE: GitHub runner is now available for Windows@ARM:

However, GraalVm does not yet support Windows@ARM:

So we are blocked by GraalVM.
