Hi @RMHogervorst
There are a couple posts I've see around, but all assume existing knowledge of R, Heroku, how projects are structured, how Heroku deployments work with buildpacks, combining multiple buildpacks etc. Also there isn't an opinionated way to test R programs in the context of Heroku; at least to my knowledge.
The most comprehensive post I've seen is this one by Steve Condylios although it is for a Shiny application.
Your 2018 post does a good job of covering the basics, albeit for the heroku-16
stack, but the buildpack hasn't changed that much for the current heroku-18
stack, so it is still relevant.
I'm afraid I have limited time at the moment, otherwise I'd have a go at writing a such a guide.
I see what you mean, please don't feel pressured to create something because someone opened an issue 😉.
Maybe something like:
