Dependency issues are stopping me from using this, please consider package formats that bundle dependencies (maybe AppImage).

I don't know appimage but it's on snap and Docker already.

It's cool that snap and docker are options, but they both still rely on external tools to an extent.

Not all distros include Snap by default (Mint and Fedora are examples of POPULAR distros that don't include it)

Docker doesn't come pre installed at all, so this is more convenient for deployments in comparison to the single executable for local development.

An AppImage would let you stay true to the SINGLE BINARY selling point.

Just my thoughts on the matter. Totally up to you.

As mentioned I don't know appimage at all but I expect that someone could set it up and maintain it if there's enough interest.

Are you saying that if you download and extract the zip from https://github.com/getzola/zola/releases/tag/v0.17.2 it requires you to install Rust? Same question for https://scoop.sh/#/apps?q=zola

The info in https://www.getzola.org/documentation/getting-started/installation/#from-source is only if you want to built it from source. There is a Windows section on that page as well as a link to the releases page on GH. What should we update?

Agreed it's not super visible.
