Quark didnt work for me
I updated the javafx dep to the latest
i compiled libusb4java from source because there are no natives for darwin-aarch64

Might be a little difficult for the average user to figure out how to do all that, so here is an updated Quark.jar with the Apple silicon usb4java library file added, which seems to have fixed it.

Quark.zip

Full steps if you need help on Macs running Apple silicon (tested on M4):

• Install Java with JavaFX support. I used Azul (https://www.azul.com/downloads/?os=macos&package=jdk-fx#zulu), the latest worked for me -> Java 25(LTS) JDK FX, just download the .dmg version -> run the installer -> boom you have Java now.
• Run updated Quark from above and enjoy.

If you want to do what I did yourself (if you know dev basics):

• Make sure you have cmake and libusb installed (use brew)
• Download source for libusb4java
• Change CMakeLists.txt file to update minimum to something newer
• Make sure your JAVA_HOME environment variable is set, if not use export JAVA_HOME=/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/<whatever it is>/Contents/Home/
• Build it using the instructions on libusb4java page
• Grab libusb4java.dylib from build/src, move it to org/usb4java/darwin-aarch64 relative to Quark.jar
• Add it to latest Quark.jar using jar uf Quark.jar org/usb4java/darwin-aarch64/libusb4java.dylib

That worked on my machine, good luck.
