How do I run my C++ code in Heroku?

Question

I have a c++ application that I would like to run online. I was considering using Heroku. How would I go about doing this? Is there an alternative service I should consider isntead?

Answer 1

Heroku can run anything.

For C++ there are two ways:

• a c++ buildpack that does compile the code while pushing
• through a docker image
