How best to run Windows 11 on a MacBook Pro M2 for Arduino/ESP program?
I have a MacBook Pro M2 running Mac OS 27.01. Would like to use the Visduino programming app that runs under Windows and not Mac OS. How best to do this: perhaps a duo boot or by running a support application? Thanks for any assistance.
