Often, CD pipelines are things that take a while to setup, and having these defined in code serves as good visibility on what happens when onboarding into a project, but also as a backup, rather than the pipeline configuration being full stored just in a service or system.
Favour a Jenkinsfile if using Jenkins.
If using Heroku, even though they have the pipeline feature, favour a CircleCI pipeline to deploy to Heroku as this provides far better visibility.
