Setup dev environment #368

Closed charl3sj closed 5 years ago

charl3sj commented 5 years ago

Pasting from below:

While setting up the dev environment, we evaluated whether to move away from Vagrant and eventually decided NOT to, because:

  • Vagrant provides a consistent environment. Troubleshooting setup, therefore, means troubleshooting only one environment as opposed to trying to figure out why it doesn't work on whatever environments developers bring in.
  • We fixed whatever issues we came across and hope that somebody new would be able to get setup without any hassle.
  • Dev-prod parity.
