📄 Description

While the current version works well with Rosetta 2, it is beneficial to be able to compile natively for ARM/Apple Silicon.

One issue that I would like input on is the switch from dotnet 5 to 6 for the CLI tools. Dotnet 6 is the minimum version to be able to target osx-arm64 and switching the CLI tools to 6 allows for the tools to be compiled and run natively on arm. The changes that I made should still work fine with dotnet 5 and be able to compile for osx-arm64 as long as dotnet 6 is also installed. It may also make more sense for this upgrade to be a separate pull request and upgrade all of the projects together to dotnet 6.
