+# `aarch64-apple-darwin`
+
+**Tier: 2 with host tools**
+
+64-bit Arm-based Apple devices running macOS: Macs with M1-family or later Apple Silicon CPUs.
+
+## Target maintainers
+
+- ???
+
+## Requirements
+
+This target supports host tools and cross-compilation. It provides the full standard library including std and alloc.
+
+Binaries built for this target expect a Apple Silicon Mac on macOS 11.0 Big Sur+.
+
+### Format
+
+The default binary format is Mach-O, the executable format used on Apple's platforms.
+
+## Building the target
+
+Just add it to the `target` with:
+```sh
+rustup target add aarch64-apple-darwin
+```
+
+## Building Rust programs
+
+Rust ships pre-compiled artifacts for this target or build your own copy of `core` by using
+`build-std`.
+
+## Testing
+
+Binaries produced for this target can be run directly on Apple Silicon Macs natively.
+The Rust test suite can be run for this target on such hardware.
+
+## Cross-compilation toolchains and C code
+
+This target supports C code. To build compatible C code, you should use a toolchain targeting aarch64-apple-darwin, such as Xcode on a Mac or GCC.
+The toolchain target triple matches this Rust target triple.
