Title: Set stage for building sql backend

It looks like Azure uses MSsql, which after talking with Rohan, it appears that there are no ORMs that will work with MSsql - not sure if this is an Azure specific thing or if it is a MSsql thing. While exploring Azure SQL server, I ran across an error that claimed to be Azure SQL specific, even compared to generic MS SQL.

The good news is that MSsql is actually the "version" of SQL I used a few years ago. The other good news is that now this makes the decision of which ORM to use an easy one.

My plan is to first build out the necessary CREATE TABLE queries to build a simple schema, and then we can explore JWT tokens and how that will jive with auth. I think we should be fine.

I'm going to use this skeleton that you set up, but really clean it out to start almost from scratch and write tests as I go along.

What do you think now about serving static assets from this server as well?
