M1 Mac Mini base model good for coding?

[Ferc Kast]

Hey all,

Like the title suggests, I was curious how the base M1 Mac Mini does for coding (specifically PHP and iOS.) Considering to pick one up later today, and wanted a second opinion.

It is. But if you plan on compiling large amounts of code, I’d recommend 16GB of RAM.

Second the 16gb recommendation.
