How do I run the project on local host and how to host it on any server? #19

Hi there!

So, truthfully, I hadn't really planned on people running it locally :/ I expected people to use tello.tv, and then I open-sourced the code in case anyone was curious how it worked.

That said, I haven't really had the time to maintain Tello, so if you wanted to run it locally, that would be a good idea; you'd own your own data and you wouldn't have to worry about Tello possibly closing (the domain alone is $50/year and I may not be willing to pay for it forever).

I wrote up some instructions in another issue here: https://github.com/joshwcomeau/Tello/issues/11

Things have actually gotten a little bit easier since then: I no longer use Imgix (was too expensive for the benefit in this case), so you should be able to just substitute in your own Amazon S3 credentials, no Imgix necessary.

Hope it helps! Truthfully I haven't worked on this codebase in a while so I don't remember exactly how to set it up, but I trust my instructions from back then.

Can you please explain how to run this on local host from scratch from cmd. Also, if I want to host this for my personal use, where and how should I host this? Thanks in advance,
