Hugo is written in Go with support for Windows, Linux, FreeBSD and OSX.
|
|
|
|
The latest release can be found at [hugo releases](https://github.com/spf13/hugo/releases).
|
|
We currently build for Windows, Linux, FreeBSD and OS X for x64
|
|
and 386 architectures.
|
|
|
|
## Installing Hugo (binary)
|
|
|
|
Installation is very easy. Simply download the appropriate version for your
|
|
platform from [hugo releases](https://github.com/spf13/hugo/releases).
|
|
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.
|
|
|
|
The Hugo executable has one *optional* external dependency for source code highlighting (pygments).
|
|
|
|
### Installing pygments
|
|
|
|
If you want to have source code highlighting using the [highlight shortcode](/extras/highlighting)
|
|
you need to install the python-based pygments program. The procedure is outlined on the [pygments home page](http://pygments.org).
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
