quote from Apple:
"In 2020 Apple announced the transition from Mac computers with Intel processors to Mac computers with Apple silicon. Rosetta was designed to ease this transition by automatically translating Intel-based apps for use with Apple silicon. This has given users and app developers more time to update their apps for Apple silicon.
Rosetta is currently available for any Mac with Apple silicon, and it will remain available through the forthcoming macOS 27 — the next major macOS release. Starting with computers using macOS 28, Rosetta functionality will be available only for certain older, unmaintained games that rely on Intel-based frameworks. Find out which macOS you’re using.
For optimal performance and future compatibility, you should update your Intel-based apps, plug-ins, extensions, and other add-ons for Apple silicon."


Status:
SharkCad is currently listed as coded for Intel som then is dependent on Rosetta.. That basically means the software is run in a manner which is not optimal for a computer with an Apple "Silicon" prosessor.

Question:
When will there be a "universal" (both intel and apple silicon code) application available?
