Bat out of hell

Not completely without luck, you find that the previous developers have actually created README's for their code!

Try that and see how that flies for you.

Install go on your cloud instance https://go.dev/doc/install
Run to two seperate terminals for frontend & backend
execute the below commands in the respective folder
Build with go build
Run both the frontend and backend with go run frontend & go run backend commands in the respective terminals Note: Ignore error message "connection refused" while executing the 'go run backend' command
Familiarize yourself with the application (frontend and backend, try to add a cookie and re-run the backend)
