Help an institution that helps other people. They got a lot of bills to pay and we got a lot of ideas to share.

Setup local environment

• Redis is required.

To run locally for development

• Start redis server $ path/to/redis/src/redis-server;
• Run the application using shotgun $ shotgun;
• Go to localhost:9393;

If you want to deploy on the cloud

I'd recommend using Appfog

• Create an account on Appfog;
• Create a Sinatra project;
• Once it's created, go to Add-ons page and install Redis-Cloud;
• In the Services tab add a Redis service;
• Go to your command line and login in your appfog account running $ af login;
• Then run $ af update [appname];
• If you're allowed to push to the original repository (thoughtworks/billbo), deployment will be automatic after each push and can be checked on billbo.aws.af.cm;
