Might have to use Google Cloud Credits for this one.

Acceptance criteria

Our current webpages are supplied by Python's Flask web server
Merging code into the main branch automatically updates the web server

I'm not sure this is quite the architecture I was expecting. I believe we'll want to host and serve the frontend from github pages (as it is), and have a backend service that the frontend can reach out to for various tasks, and to hide sensitive data from the frontend, like the API keys.

I just created the backend repo and put some automation in place to automatically deploy to Heroku, as it was easier than setting up the same in GCP.

you can see the results here

I'm gonna say this is done. We can re-open if anyone disagrees.
