Pushing react app to Heroku

Ok so I've never actually deployed an app before. I used the create-react-app to create the app, when ready I used npm run build this gives me a build folder but when I try to push the code to my github repo it says everything is up-to-date.

Should I be just concerned with the the build folder now? I tried creating a repo for my build folder and deploying it to Heroku but that didn't work.

I'm not sure how to get my code up to github and then to Heroku if it's saying everything is up to date. Just looking for some feedback here. Haven't really deployed anything before.

Thanks!

You need to create an another repo with heroku using their cli and run these commands:

heroku login

heroku create

Then copy the second link which is your heroku git repo and push your code using:

git push heroku master

You can add the create-react-app-buildpack

Set the buildpack with

heroku buildpacks:set https://github.com/mars/create-react-app-buildpack

Then just push to heroku and you're good to go!

git push heroku master
