A repository of ARM64 assembly language sample code adapted for Apple Silicon Macs, accompanying the book 'Programming with 64-Bit ARM Assembly Language'. It explains Darwin/macOS-specific differences such as system calls and memory access compared to the book's Linux examples.
Use cases
- learn ARM64 assembly on Apple Silicon
- adapt Linux ARM assembly examples to macOS
- understand Darwin system calls in assembly
- study M1 assembly programming
- follow along with a 64-bit ARM assembly book on a Mac
When to choose
- you have an Apple Silicon Mac and want to learn assembly
- you're reading the Apress ARM64 assembly book and need macOS-adjusted code
- you want to understand Mach-O/Darwin assembly conventions
When to avoid
- you need assembly tutorials for Linux or Windows
- you want a general-purpose assembler tool rather than educational sample code
- you don't have access to Apple hardware or Xcode
