Ultimate guide for local startup events, companies, and resources.

The site is built with Ruby on Rails in the back-end, and Angular.JS for the front-end.

• Rake Scheduler (Free Heroku Add-on: https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/scheduler)
• API Data Sources (See Below)

1. Download app locally
2. Rename Application.sample.yml to Application.yml

4. Rename Database.sample.yml to Database.yml
5. In Database.yml, add Postgres database settings
6. $ Bundle Install
7. $ Rake rb:create
8. $ Rake rb:migrate
