Laravel 5 + AngularJS setup. Development environment powered by Laravel Homestead (modified).

• Vagrant
• VirtualBox
• vagrant-hostmanager

• Install Vagrant and VirtualBox if you have not done so.

• Install vagrant-hostmanager by running the following command:

  $ vagrant plugin install vagrant-hostmanager

• Run the development environment by running the following command:

  $ vagrant up

• After you have regained control of your terminal, SSH the virtual terminal by running:

  $ vagrant ssh

• Ensure that the dependencies are installed by checking the presence of node_modules and bower_components in ~/sites/nuswhispers. If they are not there, run npm and bower to ensure that the dependencies are installed by running:

  $ cd /home/vagrant/sites/nuswhispers
  $ npm install
  $ bower install

• If everything is running perfectly, you should be able to access the website by requesting http://nuswhispers.local with your web browser.

If you are developing the frontend (AngularJS), run gulp to automatically compile the scripts:

$ cd /home/vagrant/sites/nuswhispers
$ gulp
