Deployment

We are using Netlify to compile and host our code automatically. When a PR is created, Netlify will generate preview builds of the site to confirm that everything is working as expected. Once code is merged to master, Netlify will promote that code to production at hackmcgill.com. Netlify also handles the SSL certificate for this site. @krubenok is currently the admin on the Netlify plan.
