Hi,

I’m not able to install the pixlet cli on my Mac with an M1 chip, using homebrew i get the following error

➜  tidbyt brew install tidbyt/tidbyt/pixlet
==> Tapping tidbyt/tidbyt
Cloning into '/opt/homebrew/Library/Taps/tidbyt/homebrew-tidbyt'...

Error: Cannot tap tidbyt/tidbyt: invalid syntax in tap!

I downloaded the binary directly and tried to use it but it didn’t work neither.

Any help is appreciated it

Hi @boredabdel,

So sorry for the issues. We were able to add support for Apple M1 in our latest release of Pixlet version v0.8.4 . Please try the brew install again and let us know if you have any additional issues!
