Johannes 70352efcaf add some documentation for getting started with development

This is really not hard, but even easier if one sees directly what to do.

Developing

Make sure you have Go installed, e.g. by executing go version.

Initialize the database. For developing, we recommend using sqlite:

user@host:repo/path$ sqlite3 officeHours.db -init sqlite.sql
sqlite> .read dummydatasqlite.sql

Now start the development webserver, note that you need to manually restart it to code changes take effect.

go run .

The website is exposed at http://localhost:8080, this (and some other options, e.g. where mails are sent to) can be adjusted in config/config.json.
