Local install

1. Clone the repo locally and set up your vhosts file to point to path/to/repo/docroot with whatever URL.
2. Create a blank PHP file in docroot/sites/default/settings.local.php and add the proper code to specify your local DB config
3. Making sure you're using drush 8.x (http://docs.drush.org/en/master/install/), run drush sql-create.
4. Download the DB from the dev site (ssh in, drush sql-dump --gzip --result-file), and install it locally.
5. Run drush config-import staging to make sure that config is synced

Sass

From the theme directory (docroot/themes/mappy), run bundle exec compass compile to compile the Sass files into styles.css

Working with config changes

Always after pulling new changes from the repo, run drush config-import staging to sync your config with code (this is like reverting features for D7).

After you make changes to your local site, drush config-export staging will export the current local config into code. It seems that git does not always play well with yaml files, so sometimes merge conflicts may arise which make the yaml invalid. Because of that it is recommended to test run drush config-import staging after each merge operation.
