You must have Elixir 1.5+ installed (1.6 would be great for auto-formatting).
To do that, visit https://elixir-lang.org/install.html and follow the instructions for your operating system.
After that, assuming you've installed Git, run:
git clone https://github.com/justicedemocrats/candidate-website.git
cd candidate-website/
mix deps.get
mix phx.server
And then visit http://localhost:4000/?candidate=alexandria-ocasio-cortez in your
browser.
?candidate=some-slug is a required parameter.
To make changes, modify the templates in /lib/candidate_website/templates, or the Stylus in /assets/stylus, and your changes will hot-reload.
