What i need to do to be able to use Browser Library on a MacOs M1 laptop ?

Hi,

I don’t own MACos myself, but do you have
but do you have also nodo, js installed (Download | Node.js)?

I did a quick search for cygrpc.cpython-310-darwin.so' (mach-o file, but is an incompatible architecture (have 'x86_64', need 'arm64e')) and then cygrpc.cpython is an incompatible architecture have 'x86_64', need 'arm64e' which I pulled out of the last line of your error.

It looks like you may have run into this issue [Python][macOS] 3.10 wheel is mislabeled as universial2 · Issue #28387 · grpc/grpc · GitHub

I’m guessing you have Python 3.10.x ? That issue is still open so it doesn’t look like there is a fix yet :frowning:

Dave.

Thanks Dave! It’s exactly this… I`ve downgraded python to 3.9 and now everything works fine.

I installed version 1.43 of grpcio and version 13.0.0 of playwright and it worked
