Good to know

Several programs live in cmd/ (agent-vm, cage-client, cage-guest-files, cage-mobile-link, cage-relay, cage). Run one with go run ./cmd/<name>; the README says which is the app.
Makefile has a make install target — it may automate most of these steps.
Nested projects: desktop/windows.tests/Cage.Windows.Tests.csproj, desktop/windows/Cage.Windows.csproj, mobile/bindings/go.mod, scripts/guest-os/guest-clipboard-windows/Cage.GuestClipboard.csproj and 11 more
