2 years ago - Deploy your app on Heroku and include the link to your deployed dashboard clearly visible near the top of your README.
- Don’t push to Heroku after the milestone deadline.
- We will compare the milestone release commits with the deployed app so updating it after the deadline will give a late penalty. If you want your newest changes online, you can create a new heroku repo.
- Since your app.py will be inside the src folder, you need to change the Procfile to web: gunicorn src.app:server instead of what it is in the dash deployment docs.
- I recommend creating requirements.txt manually and only fix the versions of dash and plotly.
- Don’t forget to include gunicorn.
- Don’t wait to deploy until Saturday night after you have implemented every single feature you want. You will not have time to solve potential issues.
- Deploy early and check that things are working, then redeploy every now and then, especially after adding new package dependencies.
- After making the milestone2 release, make a final push to Heroku to redeploy the miletone2 app.
