This is a simple news site used for demoing a basic Rails 4.0 application. Requires Ruby 1.9.3 or greater to be installed.
To get up and running, run the following from your Terminal:
git clone git://github.com/LaunchAcademyEDU/launcher_news
cd launcher_news
bundle install
rake db:setup
rails server
At this point you should have a local Rails server running on port 3000. Simply visit http://localhost:3000/ to view your new app!
