Before even we talk about how to deeply an application through a colud service named Heroku, the application must be a project that was used with git!. Yes, This is very important, because currently Heroku service support git ,and Heroku-cli( Technically both using git to upload the code and deploy it). Alright so we are assuming that you have an app that used with git and let’s being!
Now people might be wonder what is Heroku? According to the offical website it state as, “ Heroku is a container-based cloud Platform as a Service (PaaS). Developers use Heroku to deploy, manage, and scale modern apps. Our platform is elegant, flexible, and easy to use, offering developers the simplest path to getting their apps to market.” . In other word it help a user to make a “local host” project(or an application) to be visible through internet. Yes , with Heroku now we can actually deeply what we have on our computer to real time webservice that anybody who access to your project domain can now view from their own devices!
Now we understand the basic concept and minimum requirement to use Heroku, let’s run by steb by step!
If you are now user to Heroku make sure sign up for the membership!(It’s free by the way), after you done with sign-up log in to the homepage and you will seen dashboard like above image. From there click “new” button and hit “create new app”.
You are going to write you own project name (or an app name) and once you done click “create app” button.
From here it’s pretty simple, all you need to do is click Github logo and select the right repository to deploy your app. (In case if ask you to grant access make sure you do it otherwise it won’t work.)
Once you selected the right repo, you are going to see a message that says it deployed successfully and you are pretty set!
Quite easy right?
