Only x86_64 support or also others?

[Dexus]

Hi, I would like to know is ther only x86_64 support or also other architectures?

Currently TinyTeX is only built on platforms supported by AppVeyor: https://github.com/yihui/tinytex/blob/master/appveyor.yml To support other architectures, I'll need a CI service that supports them.

That said, you can install TinyTeX for any architecture (as long as it's supported by TeX Live) using the scripts:

• Windows: https://github.com/yihui/tinytex/blob/master/tools/install-windows.bat
• *nix: https://github.com/yihui/tinytex/blob/master/tools/install-unx.sh

The only problem is that these scripts installs TeX Live "from source" (a little bit slower and more fragile) and you won't be able to benefit from the pre-built binaries here.

It looks like at least for macOS, the downloaded TeX Live binaries are universal, and contain both x86_64 and arm64 executables.
(e.g. try file ~/Library/TinyTeX/bin/universal-darwin/tex)
