Description
Hello!
While investigating a compatibility issue with Sonic Generations on Linux ARM64, I needed to use HedgeModManager.
The official Flatpak currently distributes x86_64 binaries only, so I cloned the repository and built it natively on ARM64.
Environment
Debian 13 (Trixie)
Linux ARM64 (aarch64)
.NET SDK 8.0
Result
The entire solution builds successfully without any source code modifications:
dotnet build HedgeModManager.sln
The UI application also runs correctly on ARM64 and I was able to install and use the Direct3D 11 mod for Sonic Generations successfully.
Because the project already builds and runs natively on ARM64, I would like to request official aarch64 Flatpak builds.
This would allow ARM users to install HedgeModManager directly without compiling it manually.
I'd be happy to help test ARM64 builds if needed.
Thank you for maintaining the project!

Research direction
Start with the repository's Flatpak build and release configuration; the issue does not name specific files, so first locate where the official x86_64 Flatpak is defined. Run dotnet build HedgeModManager.sln on an ARM64 Debian environment as a baseline, then verify that an official aarch64 Flatpak can be produced and installed.
