[
  {
    "name": "Dan",
    "avatar": "https://d389zggrogs7qo.cloudfront.net/images/team/dan.jpg",
    "city": "NYC",
    "tz": "America/New_York"
  },
  {
    "name": "Niel",
    "avatar": "https://d389zggrogs7qo.cloudfront.net/images/team/niel.jpg",
    "city": "Cape Town",
    "tz": "Africa/Johannesburg"
  }
]

Deploy

This project is designed with a Procfile to deploy to a Heroku instance. Please check with Heorku's up to date documentation for any latest changes. You should be able to commit your changes in your forked repo (including adding your own people.json file) then run:

  $ heroku create
  $ git push heroku master

Development

You must have Node.js and Browserify installed on your system to compile the project assets. After install Node.js, run:

  $ npm install -g browserify

To run the server and download all depdencies for the project run this in the project root directory:

  $ npm install

bundle.js contains all of the necessary scripts and data for the client. To re-build this file with Browserify run:

  $ npm run build

Now to start the server on localhost:3000 you can run:

  $ node ./index.js

Note: These docs are very basic and need some more love. I'll add more info soon :)
