Installation is very easy. Simply download the appropriate version for your platform.

Hugo is written in GoLang with support for Windows, Linux and OSX.

Please make sure that you place the executable in your path. `/usr/local/bin` is the most probable location.

Hugo doesn't have any external dependencies, but can benefit from external programs.

Installing from source

Make sure you have a recent version of go installed. Hugo requires go 1.1+.

git clone https://github.com/spf13/hugo
cd hugo
go build -o hugo main.go
