Working demo om landing page

[fromheten]

What we have now

Right now we have no demo for users. That sucks, since our product is very demo-able. It can be embedded on any webpage.

How we would like to have it

We should have a demo very prominently on our landing page, where users pay €0.49 to see a happy dog picture or something cute. We should state that all money is donated to the Red Cross or so.

What is required to do this

• Deployed the API. I'm not 100% sure how we do this, and I would like to write a script to make it 100% automatic. There should be no knowledge required except for reading the Readme.
• A content entry in the content-database for the demo. Doing metrics on that address can be interesting!
• ❌The possibility to set prices in €, $, ¥ etc. This can wait until after MVP launch though - we can set this one to have a hardcoded bitcoin price. Today 29 March 2016 0.49€ = 0.0013 Bitcoin.
• An update to our landing page repository with the embedded code.

  Why do we do this?

• Dogfooding 🤓 = 🐕(🍜)
• A live demo is worth a thousand videos, and a video is worth a thousand pictures, and a picture is worth a thousand words, and a word is worth a thousand satoshis

@fromheten for now, there is a bash script when ssh'ing in to the server ./update-api.sh

this will pull from git origin if it's a fast-forward, npm install, and send the restart command to the upstart daemon for the api
