To deploy your own copy, and learn the fundamentals of the Heroku platform, head over to the
Getting Started on Heroku with Heroku Connect tutorial.
How this tutorial works
- This app was deployed to Heroku by clicking the Heroku Button in the tutorial.
- Heroku Button transfers the source code for the application, transfers any app dependencies, builds and deploys the app on Heroku, and provisions a web domain for it too.
- The app will also provision a Heroku Postgres database, and a Heroku Connect add-on, one of over 150 add-on services.
- Heroku Connect provides seamless data synchronisation between a Heroku Postgres database and a Salesforce Org. Clicking the "Connect with your Salesforce Org" configures Heroku Connect to perform this sync.
- Check out the Getting Started guide to learn more!
Please do work through the Getting Started guide, even if you do know how to build such an application. The guide covers the basics of working with Heroku and Heroku Connect, and will familiarize you with all the concepts you need in order to build and deploy your own apps.
