In your terminal, clone the repo

Make sure you've installed postgres and have started the server:

$ postgres

###Insert your credentials from Twilio:

create a file called .env and fill it with the following information:

TWILIO_ACCOUNT_SID=*** inset your account sid number

TWILIO_AUTH_TOKEN=*** insert the auth token you were assigned

Install all the dependencies:

$ bundle install

Set up the databases on your local machine:

$ rake db:create
