"Cross-link" to learn-ngrok for people who just want to ... #24

Open nelsonic opened 6 years ago

nelsonic commented 6 years ago

Should we "cross-link" to the https://github.com/dwyl/learn-ngrok tutorial for people who "just" want show their app in a Demo without deploying it? The obvious advantage is that changes can be made (with "live-reloading") on ngrok without having to go through the "minutes" of re-deploying to Heroku.

@iteles thoughts?

I think adding a "cross-link" will be a good idea but do we do it for all Heroku alternatives as well?

@manfordbenjamin good question. The cross link is just to let people know that if their goal is simply to show the App running on their localhost and not need to deploy to any service.

as for Heroku alternatives, which ones are you familiar with?

papamarfo commented 4 years ago

Alternatives include AWS and Google Cloud. Not sure if there are tutorials that cover those topics aside Heroku.

@manfordbenjamin 👍 our AWS tutorial https://github.com/dwyl/learn-amazon-web-services isn't up-to-date and we don't (yet) have a beginners tutorial for Google Cloud that shows deploying a basic app. Have you had a chance to deploy to either of these?

papamarfo commented 4 years ago

Awesome. I have a little experience with AWS but i can give Google services a try.

papamarfo commented 4 years ago

@nelsonic Any update on this?? Are we doing the cross linking or we should leave both tuts separate??

iteles commented 4 years ago

@manfordbenjamin We should definitely still do the original cross-link from the OP (for ngrok) but the others will have to wait until we have tutorials for them :)
