How to deploy to Heroku

Hi,

I was playing with the numbers-fullstack-ktor sample. I could not get to work when pushing to Heroku. Did you not place the “stage” task on the sample? Just wondering how did you push it to Heroku.

`! Warning: Multiple default buildpacks reported the ability to handle this app. The first buildpack in the list below will be used.

Are you trying to push simple, frontend-only application to Heroku? Why do you want to do this? Frontend application doesn’t need any server to run. You just need plain, static hosting - e.g. on Netlify.

@rjaros I have problems pushing template app to heroku

I added empty package.json file and set GRADLE_TASK to -Pprod=true JsJar since jar is not found. App compiles and gets pushed correctly, but it then crashes with: npm ERR! missing script: start

Is there something obvious that I’m missing?
