## Build from source

To build the extended edition of Hugo from source you must:

1. Install [Git]
1. Install [Go] version 1.20 or later
1. Install a C compiler, either [GCC] or [Clang]
1. Update your `PATH` environment variable as described in the [Go documentation]

> The install directory is controlled by the `GOPATH` and `GOBIN` environment variables. If `GOBIN` is set, binaries are installed to that directory. If `GOPATH` is set, binaries are installed to the bin subdirectory of the first directory in the `GOPATH` list. Otherwise, binaries are installed to the bin subdirectory of the default `GOPATH` (`$HOME/go` or `%USERPROFILE%\go`).

Then build and test:

```sh
CGO_ENABLED=1 go install -tags extended github.com/gohugoio/hugo@latest
hugo version
```
