FuguHub Is Now Powered by Mako Server
The original FuguHub product has been superseded by Mako Server together with the new open-source FuguHub CMS.
Why FuguHub Changed
The original FuguHub combined its web server, identity system, file services, applications, and CMS in one product. Mako Server provides a newer and more flexible Barracuda App Server runtime, while the new FuguHub is installed as an application running on Mako.
This new structure keeps FuguHub easy to run while making the CMS, themes, and optional services easier to develop, package, and update. The new FuguHub also includes an MCP interface that lets compatible AI agents help create pages, manage themes, and build Lua and LSP web applications.
Recommended: Install the New FuguHub
The easiest way to install the new FuguHub is to use the Mako Server Developer Edition. Its mako.zip package includes FuguHub, Xedge, LSP-Claw, and development tools that are ready when Mako starts.
- Download and install Mako Server.
- Download the Developer Edition mako.zip.
- Replace the standard
mako.zipnext to the Mako executable with the Developer Edition file. Keep a backup of the original file. - Start Mako by running
mako. - Open
http://localhost/for FuguHub orhttp://localhost/admin/to begin configuring the CMS.
In the Developer Edition, FuguHub is the main application and serves the root page. Xedge remains available at http://localhost/rtl/, and LSP-Claw is available at http://localhost/lsp-claw/.
Developers who want to assemble or customize the package can use the source and deployment scripts in the FuguHub GitHub repository.
Continue Using the Original FuguHub
The original FuguHub remains available for existing installations and users who depend on its established applications and workflow. You can continue using your current installation or download the older version.
The original version retains its existing license and setup process. See the non-commercial license agreement and original FuguHub download page.
Which Version Should You Choose?
- Choose the new FuguHub for new projects, active development, AI-assisted CMS management, modern Mako APIs, and packaged deployment.
- Keep the original FuguHub when maintaining an existing installation that relies on its legacy applications or compatibility.
