Code for Philly's website repository built as an extension of laddr, a website building tool designed specifically for civic hacking groups.
The following is directly taken from the Getting started guide on laddr's README.
Install recent versions of Habitat and Docker on your Linux, Mac, or Windows workstation.
cd ~/Repositories/laddr # or wherever you cloned this rep
# expose port 7080 (http) and 3306 (mysql) from any Docker container started by Habitat
export HAB_DOCKER_OPTS="-p 7080:7080 -p 3306:3306"
# launch and enter a Habitat studio
hab studio enter
# once the studio has finished loading, start all services with a local database
start-all
# clone a production instance's database
load-sql https://codeforphilly.org
# build and load the site, then wait for file changes
watch-siteAt that point you should be able to see an instance at http://localhost:7080 and any edits should be reflected live
