Agreed, I got the Surface Pro 11 to have a Windows on ARM device to test on, and it's quickly become my favorite portable device. It's really nice to have a tablet that lasts days on battery, that you can draw on and then flip around and write code on.

The last thing I was waiting on was Zed, which now works on Windows ARM as of a couple weeks ago (though there aren't official builds yet so I build it from source).

Hate to hand it to Microsoft but it's just a really versatile and powerful device.



Have you also tried Visual Studio on it?

This is something that would hold me back, only getting half backed experience, expecially as many plugins are still COM based.


It works just fine and is natively ARM, since a year or so.


Great, thanks for the feedback.


Not really, since most of my work is in Rust. I can't speak to COM plugins.
