Hosting Ember-CLI app on Parse.com

Question

This is a follow-up question to Ember.js app, Parse throws 404 for any path but root:

I have built an Ember-CLI app that I now want to host on Parse.com.

I can't figure out how to actually run the app server on Parse. I confess I don't understand how to serve an Ember-CLI in production from any server.

Do I run "ember server" on Parse somehow or do I need to make my own Express server for this to work?

1. Run parse new in some temp folder to create the correct config files for your existing parse app
2. Edit .ember-cli file and add "output-path" : "dist/public" to deploy your code to dist/public
3. Copy the folders code and config from your temp folder in step 1 to dist/code and dist/config
4. In a terminal window cd dist and parse deploy
5. Edit environment.js in your ember config folder and change locationType to hash
