Does M1 macbook air support Revit software

I am a civil engineering and I'm planing to buy macbook air M1 but i came to know that revit software is not working on M1 macbook air. Is that true? Should I buy or not.

MacBook Air (2020 or later)

Autocadd Revit I just purchased a new 16" macbook pro, Late 2019 base model. I want to run Revit on the computer,and I'm not sure which is the most efficient way to go. 1#. Buy the Parallel program to run Windows 10 or 2# use the Boot camp app. Is one better than the other. I'm just learning the Revit program, and I will probably put Sketchup on the computer also. I know I should've checked the software requirements first. Hope someone in the construction design industry can shed some light on this challenge.

I just installed and am running Revit 2021 on my Macbook Pro M1

Mac OS 11.1

Parallels 17

Windows 11 Pro build 22000.132

Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.22000.132.0

I was NOT able to install Revit 2022, btw. As mentioned, you need to register for the Windows Insider program to get the ARM version of Windows. I also plan on isolating Win 11 from Mac OS, don't know how good security is on Win11 ARM...

Note: I'm a new Revit user, so I can't comment on performance vs. native windows machine, but I'll update this reply as I use it.

Make sure you partition enough HD space on Parallels. I'm using 82GB, I think you'll need at least 70 w/o Revit add-on packs.
