#2.Create Your Heroku App
Heroku is a cloud application platform. A Heroku app provides a set of one or more web applications and services, which are available at a unique URL. Heroku apps can be deployed to run in the cloud or on-premises. This article will help you to create your own Heroku app with the help of stepwise instructions. You will learn how to configure your Heroku account, define the application and add add-ons to interact with external services like Amazon Web Services or Salesforce. It’s quite simple, just follow the steps mentioned below.
1. Sign up for Heroku account
Sign up for a free Heroku account and add your credit card details to start using it. To sign up, click here. Once you have created an account, you will be redirected to the dashboard.

3. Add git repository

4. Add add-ons
5. Push your code to Heroku
6. Setup Postgresql database
7. Setup Heroku remote add-on
8. Run the application locally and push it to Heroku
9. Configure Salesforce Integration

Heroku Connect is a tool that makes data and content available to Heroku applications. It enables data and content updates to be persisted to a database such as Postgres, or to a cloud storage service. The changes will then be reflected in your application on the next request. It’s not just one of those add-on services you buy but never use. Heroku Connect is a feature of the Heroku platform that can be used by any application deployed to Heroku, regardless of whether it was built by Heroku’s team, or by you.

Heroku is a cloud platform that allows you to build, run, and scale modern web applications. Heroku provides a lot of services like add-ons for billing and deployment, but the real magic happens when combined with Git and other tools. In this article, we’ll discuss an example of how to use Heroku pipelines with GitHub, as well as how to use Heroku Flow for continuous delivery.
#5.Configure the Production Environment
We will install Java, Gradle, and Git on the server to be able to compile and generate the application during the installation process. We are going to use Vagrant to configure a virtual machine on your computer. The machine will be used as a development environment.
