Description

There might be issues with running local debugging on macOS 11 Big Sur on M1 arm chips.
`aio app run --local --verbose`.

Double check if you have the M1 chip: run `aio info`.

Local debugging requirements:
1. `node.js` (should run under Rosetta 2, native binary pending: https://github.com/nodejs/build/issues/2474)
2.` java JRE` (should run under Rosetta 2, native binary pending: https://bugs.openjdk.java.net/browse/JDK-8251280)
3. `Docker`. will not run yet. See https://github.com/docker/for-mac/issues/4733. A comment mentioned "it's months away", so realistically perhaps 1Q 2021.

Because Docker won't run on Apple Silicon during the launch of the Apple machines with the M1 chip, local debugging won't work until Docker creates a new release fixing the issue.

Research direction

Start by checking the M1 environment with `aio info`, then run `aio app run --local --verbose` and verify the listed Node.js, Java JRE, and Docker requirements. Confirm whether Docker support has changed and whether local debugging now works; otherwise document the current external blocker and compatibility status.
