working with the newhaven.io website

howto.md

Updated on 11/4/2015 for changes made in scotchbox 2.5

A working and current VirtualBox Guest Additions installation is required if you wish to use a shared folder for local development and committing.

We'll use vagrant so you don't pollute your local.
