Installing Hugo Static Website Generator on Linux
-
Does that installs Hugo or Hugo Extended?
-
They probably don't have any "official" Linux documentation because it's just a binary you download from their releases page on GitHub.
I just throw it in ~/bin and it works.

However, they don't have any standard Linux install documentation on their website and only show using Homebrew, a MacOS package that essentially no one on Linux uses. Very odd.
I just looked. I'm not sure what you're talking about. The page clearly shows snaps, dnf, apt, pacman, eopgk, and pkg_add for OpenBSD.

Installing Hugo from tarball is what I would use now.
I have a script that will compare the current version and the latest version. If I have a old version it will download a newer version. Now I just need to setup systemd schedule for it.

Snap automates that out of the gate.

Completely different than what I got from the same link this morning. I went to that page, clicked on Linux, and they only showed Brewlinux, which isn't even the current name of the system.

If I was using Ubuntu. Not installing snapd on my Fedora systems.

I always add Snap to Fedora. Why would you only want it on Ubuntu? It's a universal standard.

Way back machine shows it's been there since at least the 13th.

Very weird. I wonder if it was a cache somewhere? I definitely poked around this morning and Linuxbrew was the only thing that it had and had it from every link that I tried on their site.
