ExtendScript Debugger (for Visual Studio Code) on device Apple Silicon works only with Rosetta
Using Rosetta slows down a lot...
 
Is there a version planned that runs natively on Apple Silicon?

Hi @LeonardoAgosti,

 

Thanks again for raising this. As erinferinferinf suggested, there is now a prerelease version of the ExtendScript Debugger for Visual Studio Code (v2.1.0 RC1) that includes support for Apple Silicon devices. You can join the Creative Cloud Developers Prerelease program to access it here:

Hope this helps improve performance on your end.

Hi @LeonardoAgosti,

 

Thanks for bringing this up! Currently, ExtendScript Debugger for Visual Studio Code does require Rosetta on Apple Silicon devices, which can indeed affect performance.

I’d recommend raising a request on the Adobe UserVoice platform for this. Once you've created the post, please do share the link here in this thread so others in the community can upvote it and help bring more visibility to the request.
