I installed and played with Jekyll on a windows box. It was a horrible experience because of installing Ruby and all the dependencies. I'd like to give Hugo a shot just because I know it's Go and it will likely be a single binary with no deps that just works.

It is and it does.

It depends on python-pygments for syntax highlighting, though you can configure it to use front-end based highlighters like highlight.js.
It can optionally use python-pygments for syntax highlighting. It's not a requirement and as you mention alternatives are available.
