Create a Guide/Template: Hosting for your project #70
Description
Overview
We need to create a beginners guide to hosting your project in GitHub (free), or if it requires an obscured backend how to connect with DevOps to host on our AWS incubator so that teams know how to host their projects.
Details
obscured backend = 311 Data and the Hack for LA website are the teams that use GitHub both for front end and for backend (data storage), because the data they store is not private, they are able to store it in a GitHub repo. If you have a project that has information that you must keep private (PII), then you would need an account on our AWS incubator.
Action Items
The phases in the guide-making process are listed below. Each phase displayed in blue is linked to a wiki page with instructions on how to complete that phase. Open the wiki page in a new tab, copy the instructions for each part into the section labeled 'Tasks' at the bottom of this issue, and complete each task listed.
