Once your vagrant is up (run vagrant up if it is not), log into your virtual machine via vagrant ssh and run the following to create a setup for your own app (replace $APP with the name of your app):

Open the config.yml and set the newly created app for the value of `APP: `. Save your file.
Start your app in vagrant
From within your vagrant type ./start.sh to start the beavy processes.
This will open a tmux splitted window session. On the top is a default shell for you to use (on vagrant of course).

On the bottom left, the session first installs all dependencies (depending on the modules you have configured), then runs any migrations and starts the flask process.

**Congratulations**, you've just started your first beavy social community!
