Hello,  
I’ve just discovered go language and it seems we can build packages from every architecture from the same sources right ?  
So I did a fork of grafana and I did some changes in front end (tsx files) and some on back end (go files). Now I can build easily for my environment with the command: `go run build.go build package`

1/ where I can find the files to deploy.

- %GOPATH%\src\[github.com](http://github.com)\grafana\grafana\bin\windows-amd64\grafana-server.exe ? (the backend right ?)
- the front end from %GOPATH%\src\[github.com](http://github.com)\grafana\grafana\public ?

2/ what is the file grafana-cli.exe ?

3/ Can I make a build for a debian distrib from my windows source code ?

Thanks and happy to be on board 🙂
