How to Install Hugo Site Generator with Nginx on Rocky Linux 9

A static site is built with pages of static content or plain HTML, JavaScript, or CSS code. The content is not dynamically generated and does not involve any database or server-side processing. Such sites are incredibly fast and immune to exploits that depend on dynamic code or SQL.

Hugo is an open-source static site generator written in Go. It generates content by converting posts written in markdown language to HTML. Hugo also ships with an in-built server to host the sites it generates. You can also host a Hugo website on Amazon S3, GitHub pages, Google Cloud, Netlify, Vercel, etc.
