/Users/senny/Projects/rails-contributors/db/schema.rb doesn't exist yet. Run `rake db:migrate` to create it then try again. If you do not intend to use a database, you should instead alter /Users/senny/Projects/rails-contributors/config/application.rb to limit the frameworks that will be loaded
extract lead color into scss variable.
