standardize dev env #360

Closed chadwhitacre closed 8 years ago

Follow-on from #358.

chadwhitacre commented 8 years ago

Basically I think we should use Heroku buildpacks to build locally, to keep dev and production as similar as possible.

Gosh, we should really have tests. :-(

I'm abandoning this until after we have CI.

I agree, but we opted to wait until stage 3 of the roadmap (http://cityasacampus.org/doc/roadmap.html), which is post-MVP to write the unit tests. Not very conventional, but unit tests, logging, and great documentation are all called out under the "tech debt" label that I'll make an epic for post-MVP.
