How Mina work?

[1c7]

Hi,
Can anyone explain how Mina work generally? (on big picture level? and maybe dive into some detail?)

• how mina use ssh? why there are forward_agent? and permission problem?( fail to mkdir )
• what file is the "key" file? contain most logic or something
• just overall concept

it's easier for other people to continue to maintain this project.

• who created this?
• why created this? (during working for ___ company. because ____, so ____ ?)
• when?
• is creator still actively working on this?
• please put all these into Readme
• not everyone want go though commit history and do research to find out all these question

Thank you very much!

Can you take a look at https://github.com/mina-deploy/mina/blob/master/docs/how_mina_works.md and see if that is what you needed?
