Flynn

General workflow

• Start a flynn cluster (on amazon or vagrant)

• flynn cluster add to add that cluster

• flynn create NAME in your app

• git push flynn master to deploy

Creating a cluster (AWS)

flynn install  # (provisions AWS EC2 stuff)
flynn key add  # (adds your pubkey to AWS)

What it does

• This creates XXXX.flynnhub.com

• Dashboard in dashboard.XXXX.flynnhub.com

• Apps live in APP.XXXX.flynnhub.com
