The snaps for Hugo are available amd64 (x86_64), i386, armhf, arm64 and ppc64el platforms, thanks to the automatic cross-building infrastructure provided on Launchpad.
Kudos to Daniel Holbach from Ubuntu and Canonical for laying the framework and guiding us along the way to make this happen, helping Hugo reach more places!
So yes, if it fits your workflow, please go ahead and give the Hugo snaps a try! Have fun!
