| // Package main provides a Go program for managing snapshots of Firecracker microVMs. | ||
| // The program utilizes the Firecracker Go SDK for creating and loading snapshots, | ||
| // and it demonstrates how to establish SSH connections to interact with microVMs. | ||
| // Comments are provided to explain each function's purpose and usage. | ||
|
|
||
| // In this program, a "snapshot" refers to a point-in-time copy of the state of a Firecracker microVM. | ||
| // Snapshots capture the complete memory and state of the microVM, allowing users to save and restore its exact configuration and execution context. | ||
| // They enable quick deployment and management of microVM instances with pre-defined configurations and states, which is useful for testing, development, and deployment scenarios. | ||

https://github.com/firecracker-microvm/firecracker-go-sdk/blob/main/examples/cmd/snapshotting/README.md will be a better place for this information

Most of the code here is self-explanatory and/or understandable with a quick search. I would prefer to have more readable code, than annotate every line of code with comments.
