Apple Silicon on OS X
---------------------
For now, the `node-canvas` dependency requires some binary dependencies to be pre-installed on ARM64 Apple Silicon, e.g. M1 processors.
Homebrew users can run
`arch -arm64 brew install pkg-config cairo pango libpng jpeg giflib librsvg`
And pass `CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH` to `yarn` during the `install` step:
`CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=/opt/homebrew/include yarn install`
See https://github.com/Automattic/node-canvas/issues/1733
