CircleCI is enhancing its continuous integration and continuous delivery (CI/CD) platform by offering Apple developers new M1 compute resources, available in medium and large classes, to improve software build speed and efficiency. These resources accommodate the growing need for cloud-hosted Apple silicon support, leveraging the M1 chip's streamlined “System on a Chip” architecture that integrates CPU, GPU, RAM, and more, significantly boosting processing speed and performance. For iOS developers, this means faster and more reliable end-to-end testing, including GPU tests, and quicker build processes, which expedite the App Store review and publishing cycle. By using M1 in their CircleCI pipelines, developers can keep pace with Apple's shift from Intel to Arm-based chips, ensuring they remain competitive in the evolving landscape of Apple development.
