Getting Started with Python on Heroku

How this sample app works

• This app was deployed to Heroku using Git.
• When Heroku received the source code, it fetched all the dependencies in requirements.txt, creating a deployable build artifact.
• The platform then spins up a dyno, a lightweight container that provides an isolated environment in which the build artifact can be mounted and executed.
• You can scale your app, manage it, and deploy over 150 add-on services, from the Dashboard or CLI.

Next Steps
