Support for Windows on ARM64 gensim wheels.
Author: MGN-GITCreated Jul 25, 2025Updated Jul 25, 2025
- The adoption of Windows on ARM (WoA) devices is steadily increasing, yet many Python wheels are still not available for this platform.
- GitHub Actions now offer native CI runners for Windows on ARM devices (windows-11-arm), enabling automated builds and testing.
- Currently, official gensim Python wheels are not provided for Windows ARM64 and thus users/developers were facing difficulties using popular gensim python library natively.
- I am ready to contribute for genism source to enable native builds for Win-ARM64 wheels through CI.
- Currently the gensim uses older version of numpy for building, but the support for NumPy on Win-ARM64 starts from v2.3.0. Is it hard dependency to use older version of NumPy to support genism builds? Looking forward for your kind suggestions.
