• Intented use is as a library in Go code

   package main

   func main() {
  
   	// Example 1
   	fmt.Println(platform.GetInfo().CPU.Architecture)     // => ex: arm OR amd64
   	fmt.Println(platform.GetInfo().CPU.Variant.Name)     // => ex: armv5 OR armv6 OR armv8, etc
   	fmt.Println(platform.GetInfo().CPU.Variant.Detailed) // => ex: armv5te
  
   	// Example 2
   	if platform.IsArm(platform.GetInfo().CPU.Architecture) {
