Ask HN: Learning Heroku

5 pointsarithmetic15 years ago4 comments

I'm beginning to learn Heroku for a side-project. What are the best resources out there? Are there any books you'd recommend? Any good blog posts, documentation etc.? Please share them all!

There are also some screencasts scattered around the Heroku blog. For example, I was just using their screencast on New Relic and the queue depth:

I also recently used another screencast for setting up a Sinatra app. It's incredibly simple, go figure:

Very helpful. The Heroku docs also have a lot of information about the Heroku specific stuff that you might want to read about (like dynos and the backlog).

The Heroku docs are great. Michael Hartl's http://www.railstutorial.org Chapter 1.4 also covers that well

http://docs.heroku.com/ - I am sure you have seen this, but there is a ton of good info here.
