Installation is very easy. Simply download the appropriate version for your
|
|
|
|
|
platform. Once downloaded it can be run from anywhere. You don't need to install
|
|
|
|
|
it into a global location. This works well for shared hosts and other systems
|
|
|
|
|
where you don't have a privileged account.

Ideally you should install it somewhere in your path for easy use. `/usr/local/bin`
|

|
|
|
is the most probable location.

## 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
|
|
|
