It looks like Hugo does provide a static executable. I'm aware that Go is known for providing standalone binaries, but last time I checked Hugo's website I didn't notice the binary installation method [0], which is why I mentioned it as equivalent with Jekyll. I'll give it another look.
Regarding Ruby, Gems on Linux is a mess that I don't want to have to deal with for anything, but especially not for a static site generator.
Rust probably could provide a precompiled binary, but the recommended installation method for Blades involves `cargo` which is why I asked the question.

Cargo is the Rust compiler (or rather the Rust build system). After you run it, it'll spit out a binary which you can use elsewhere. If I'm reading your question correctly, this would be analogous to seeing a reference to CMake in a C++ project's README and then asking whether C++ supports precompiled binaries.
