          platforms: arm64, i386
      -
        name: Create an example binary for AArch64
        run: |
          go mod init hello
          cat << EOL > hello.go
          package main

          func main() {
            println("Hello, AArch64!")
          }
          EOL
          GOARCH=arm64 go build hello.go          
      -
        name: This would fail without docker/setup-qemu-action
        run: ./hello
      -
        name: You can also run images from other platforms
