VistasHow to install NodeJS natively on Apple Silicon M1?
I am trying to install NodeJS on the new Apple Silicon MacBook Pro, but I wasn't able to find a way to install it on the ARM-based Apple M1.
The standard installation will run in Intel emulation mode, but I saw they already have an ARM Linux version which I assume is not suitable for M1 Macs.
If possible, how can I install Node.JS on Apple Silicon without having it run in emulation mode?

The primary Node.JS repository has Issue #2747, which was updated yesterday with a note that current versions of Node compile just fine with no modifications required via Rosetta 2. The same post indicated that there was still in-flight "work to be done" to compile Node to an M1-native binary to unlock additional performance benefits.
Additional resources:
- Node.JS Technical Steering Committee opened Issue #886 in their GitHub repository to track Node's support for Apple Silicon.

Hit similar issues. I would recommend you enable "Open using Rosetta" on Terminal, which should reduce all ends of pain for the moment. When this was enabled, I was able to install Node, as well as Homebrew, etc, with no issues. To do to:
- right click your terminal app from Finder
- select "Get Info"
- enable "Open using Rosetta"
N.B. I am using iTerm in the screenshot below, but the same applies for Terminal
