To provide a quick and easy way to find and communicate with friends in a very crowded or diverse landscape
Start by getting all of the tools:
- Vagrant
- VirtualBox
- chef
Spin up a new instance by running the following in the repo:
vagrant up
You should then have a working ubuntu instance that should be running mongo and a nodejs app within docker containers. Connect to it via either:
# for ssh access
vagrant ssh
# for api access
curl http://<host>:8000/
Ultimately, the pieces of the architecture will look something like:
- iOS / Android / web client talks to
- NodeJS api that will store data in a
- mongodb database
