Quickstart

1. Clone the repo into your working directory
2. Install Go and set it up if you haven't already
3. Retrieve all go dependencies ($ go get .)
4. Copy or rename config.template.json to config.json, remove comments, and edit if need be.
5. Build and run the application ($ go build; ./webauthn)

Important Notes
