Local Development

Ensure you've set the following environment variables:

export NODE_ENV=development
export org=your org #(eg. Jam3) 
export gitToken=your github access token #(details below) 

If you're testing webhooks (your server will need to be accessible by github) do the following:

export gitHookSecret=your github webhook secret
