Publishing Your Site

It's time to publish your site!

First, make sure to commit all your changes with git:

git add .
git commit -m "created controllers and views"

Next, push your code to Heroku:

git push heroku master

If you want the sample seed data on your live site, run:

heroku run rake db:seed

You can now share your live site with the world! If you want to change the name and URL of your app, you can run the following command in your terminal:

heroku rename your-new-app-name

Connecting Your Site with Cloudflare

Optional Section

If you're interested in running a live website with your own domain, it's a good idea to get Cloudflare for it.

Cloudflare provides a free service for speeding up your site and protecting it from certain kinds of attacks. It provides many other benefits, so it's worth connecting your production site to it.
