To get your assets to properly compile on heroku, change your production.rb file to say true here instead of false:`config.assets.compile = true`

[Deploy to heroku through git](https://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/git).

Deploy with branch name other than master or main: `git push heroku my-branch:main`

### Dokku

Push app:`git push dokku master`

In your production group, you'll likely want these two gems:

```
gem 'pg' # postgres
gem 'rails_12factor' # for logging
```

SSH into server to run dokku commands. Use `dokku --help` for list of commands.
