Got a few basic model pieces set up, and passing a few super-simple tests.

Not nearly ready, but it's a start.
Better tests...passes
Slightly better recipe tests.

Also, stole user model from another project.  Tests pending
Now I'm using "grunt build" to end-to-end test... needed to tidy a file
Added grunt-cli so "npm test" will work
Simple user test... also tidy recipe test (keep consistent!)
Added some auth logic.   Not directly model-related, I suppose, but the
user model will need it to be viable.
Merge branch 'feature/initial_models' into develop
Added some ui components, and half-ported the master layout file.

Next is nav stuff
Pretty...but clearly bootstrap2 (and not fully compatible).

Next, I want to clean the menu.
Cleaned the nav piece to look old-style
Login appears to work now.
Login button and minor bootstrap class tweak
Merge branch 'feature/base_ui' into develop
Page renders..doesn't do much
Solved one of my annoyances....with one of my favorite chuckles
UGH! Ugly commit.  I had to add localization support just to get this
thing to run right.  Apparently, there's a bug in makara where you get
500 errors sometimes when you don't use the faux-locale paths in
development.

And you can't use prod at all without localization!
Slow progress on this recipes page, but we knew that.

I have steps VISUALLY working...not sure how they submit yet.  I'll know
that later.
All forms work in the front-end...they need a little class-cleanup, and
either name cleanup (for real posts) or a final "get all" view_model
hook.
Dunno the progress..rebooting
