I switched out gulp-express for gulp-live-server to see if that would give me any clues.

It is giving me some error output now

I don't have a FIREBASE_SECRET in .env which might be the problem. https://github.com/mozilla/build.webmaker.org/blob/master/server/config/secrets.js#L9

Adding a FIREBASE_SECRET from a new personal Firebase hacker plan has worked for me.

Hmmm... re-opening this, as it doesn't work when I switch back to gulp-express

Confirmed on my end as well. Running @adamlofting 's patch in the meantime.

Will look.
