Heroku is a platform-as-a-service for building, running, and managing modern apps in the cloud. You can deloy an Astro site to Heroku using this guide.

  1. Install the Heroku CLI.

  2. Create a Heroku account by signing up.

  3. Run heroku login and fill in your Heroku credentials:

    $ heroku login
  4. Create a file called static.json in the root of your project with the below content:

    static.json:

    {
      "root": "./dist"
    }

    This is the configuration of your site; read more at heroku-buildpack-static.

    # version change
    $ git init
    $ git add .
    $ git commit -m "My site ready for deployment."
    
    # creates a new app with a specified name
    $ heroku apps:create example
