This tutorial is designed to assist developers who want to have a step-by-step guide to deploying their admin backend to Heroku.

If you don’t have an Heroku account yet, [sign up here](https://signup.heroku.com/). Then, create your first Heroku application **(1)** **(2)**.

After creating your application, simply follow the Heroku guide “Deploy using Heroku Git” to push the admin backend code to the Heroku application.
