#Setting up Nginx on Your Local System ###by Keith Rosenberg

##Step 1 - Homebrew The first thing to do, if you're on a Mac, is to install homebrew from http://mxcl.github.io/homebrew/

The command to type into terminal to install homebrew is:

ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Homebrew/install/master/install)"

This article has been given a more permanent home on my blog. Also, since it was first written, the development of the Promises/A+ specification has made the original emphasis on Promises/A seem somewhat outdated.

You're Missing the Point of Promises

Promises are a software abstraction that makes working with asynchronous operations much more pleasant. In the most basic definition, your code will move from continuation-passing style:

getTweetsFor("domenic", function (err, results) {
 // the rest of your code goes here.

Deploying Parse Server on AWS

Note: this is a work-in-progress and will be updated with more information over the next few days.

Intro

This guide will walk you through deploying your own instance of the open-source Parse Server. This would be a good starting point for testing your existing application to see if the functionality provided by the server is enough for your application, and to potentially plan your migration off the Parse Platform.

This guide will walk you through using Elastic Beanstalk (EB), which is an AWS service similar to Heroku. Why use EB rather than Heroku? Elastic Beanstalk does not lock you into Heroku-specific ways of doing things, is likely cheaper to run your backend on than Heroku, and it integrates with other services that AWS offer (and they offer almost everything one needs to run an application these days).
