Unsupported system error when installing on M1 / Apple Silicon

System information

• OS Platform and Distribution (e.g., Linux Ubuntu 16.04): macOS 11.0.1 (20B29)
• TensorFlow.js installed from (npm or script link): npm
• TensorFlow.js version: 2.8.3

Describe the problem

Installation fails due to a missing precompiled libtensorflow for darwin / arm64.

Apple has their own fork of TensorFlow supporting their chips-- is there a way to tell the installation script to use their libtensorflow.dylib?

Provide the exact sequence of commands / steps that you executed before running into the problem

npm install @tensorflow/tfjs-node --save

@pyu10055 https://github.com/pyu10055 Is there any chance we could get an ETA on a release for this tho? Although pointing to the branch directly works fine, I’d love to submit some PRs to some dependencies that use tfjs, and it’s highly unlikely PRs will get approved when pointing to a branch.
