Hi. What's the difference between armhf and arm64 for .deb packages?

Moved to proper location.

armhf is 32bit

arm64 is 64bit.

 

There are a few other variants of arm in 32bit which you can lookup via Wikipedia for example

Some additional information for the curious ... https://www.debian.org/ports/arm/

• The ARM EABI (armel) port targets a range of older 32-bit ARM devices, particularly those used in NAS hardware and a variety of *plug computers.
• The newer ARM hard-float (armhf) port supports newer, more powerful 32-bit devices using version 7 of the ARM architecture specification.
• The 64-bit ARM (arm64) port supports the latest 64-bit ARM-powered devices.
