GitPod.io online web-based IDE lowers the entry barrier and makes contributing to Fineract easier

Hello,

I've just merged https://github.com/apache/fineract/pull/598, which just
adds a small .gitpod.yml, and a brief blurb to the README, explaining that
to contribute people don't necessarily have to do the perhaps sometimes
complicated local set-up (install Java, mySQL; Eclipse/IntelliJ) anymore -
now anyone can start hacking on the Java code just by clicking on
https://gitpod.io/#https://github.com/apache/fineract !

How cool is that?

Best,
M.
