With Nanobox, you don't have to have anything installed on your machine to run your app:

# drop into a Nanobox console
nanobox run

# where node is installed,
node -v

# your packages are available,
yarn ls

# and your code is mounted
ls

Running in Production

This repo is pre-configured to run in production, however you will need to update the production url defined in the config.production.json to match the url you intend to use in production. Nanobox provides app-urls for all apps using the pattern appname.nanoapp.io. You're welcome to use that or your own custom domain.
