The record

Purpose: Hugin is a cross-platform panoramic imaging toolchain that assembles photographs into immersive panoramas and stitches overlapping pictures.
Panorama workflows: Its tutorials cover stitching multi-row photos with the automated Assistant and correcting perspective with control points.
Photo correction: The tutorials describe using Hugin for lens calibration, perspective correction, blend masks and exposure fusion.
Blending tools: The project says Hugin uses Enblend for seam blending and Enfuse for exposure fusion of bracketed stacks.
Licensing: The download page describes Hugin as open-source software that is free to use, modify and share.
Windows support: The download page offers a 64-bit Windows installer and says 32-bit Windows is supported only through Hugin 2017.0.
macOS support: The download page lists a Mac bundle for macOS 10.9 and newer, and says that version does not run on newer arm64 Macs.
Linux support: The download page directs Linux users to distribution package managers and also lists Flatpak and AppImage builds.
Builds and maintenance: The project says it makes reasonable efforts to ensure released source builds on many platforms but cannot guarantee builds for every platform.
Support: The project directs users to its hugin-ptx mailing list for discussion and to Launchpad to report bugs.
Documentation: The documentation page points users to the Hugin Manual, tutorials, FAQs and the PanoTools wiki.
Intended audience: SourceForge lists the intended audience as desktop end users, other audiences, and science or research users.
Security information: The official pages opened describe downloads, documentation and community support but do not state a security certification or compliance standard.
