Great video Bobby. I know a lot of the channel viewers will find that really useful.

This is way more convenient than Github pages (need to build and publish yourself, do some workarounds, then push that published build to a new branch or repo). And GH-Pages doesn't support fullstack apps, just statics.
I'm definitely using this in the future!

This is a great video, I learned alot and have deployed some of my .net core apps.
However, when I tried deploy one of my .net core Web api with swagger it does not work.
The deployment process seems to work though, it builds successfully on Heroku.
But when I try visiting the deployed site I get "Application Error".

I would love to see you make a video on this topic, on how to deploy a .net core web api with swagger configuration.
The process on this seems to be a bit diffrent.

as Heroku dyno is going for paid from november. do you have any alternative for .net API free hosting?

[guillermomazzari]

How can I do this with a database? I have an Instagram clone, it is a personal project, that I would like to host, but it has a full DB, will this deploy method work as well??

Great video!!! I was wondering do you go about deploying microservice APIs, when they're in the same repo.

[matthewhodges]

This is awesome. Thanks for the walkthrough.

Thankyou for this Tutorial. Just one question: Why dosen't it work with Blazor? I tried it & and it did not work like an ASP App. thanks Carlo

[lastidea]

Git connection doesn't work because of some security issues, don't waste your time with that. You must use heroku CLI
