Demo down #243

Hi, interested in using HDM with TileMill - but having troubling configuring.

How do I point to the correct shp file? Do I have to import the layer on TileMill?

Also, before I keep troubleshooting - the demo page is down. Would be great to know what I'm aiming for!

Sorry for that, server issue. Devops are on track.

You usually only need to configure a cartocc.json files with the correct path for your configuration, and then you can open the project with Tilemill.

You can then either download the data files yourself, and add the files through cartocc.json, or let Tilemill do it for you on first run. But it will not run prepare DEM files in any cases. For that you have scripts on the DEM folder (I need to update the README it seems :/ ).

Also, do you have a postgres running with OSM data on it?
