I have some problems with deploying app on Heroku.
First of all: I don't understand why I have some memory restriction in CSS files?
I solved that problem later when I had cleaned all listed CSS files (Screen below)
This errors that I fixed later
Then I've got different problem with it. I saw several examples about how to deploy Angular app on Heroku and there were clearly identical "server.js", but I still don't understand why do we need to use "./dist" and with all examples that I saw - I'm totally confused how we can find index.html?
This is an example of how server.js should look like.
const express = require('express');
const app = express();
app.use(express.static('./dist/angular-heroku'));
app.get('/*', (req, res) =>
res.sendFile('index.html', {root: 'dist/angular-heroku/'}),
);
app.listen(process.env.PORT || 8080);
And this is my implementation:
const express = require('express');
const app = express();
app.use(express.static('./dist/Web-App'));
app.get('/*', (req, res) =>
res.sendFile('index.html', {root: 'dist/Web-App/'}),
);
app.listen(process.env.PORT || 8080);
So Web-App is my folder where I hold my Angular project, but I'm confused: I've got "index.html" inside "Web-App/src/index.html. How can it find index.html without including at least "/src" direction?
Here is my package.json:
{
"name": "Web-App",
"version": "0.0.0",

"ng": "ng",

}
When I deploy my app it just display "Error" as a title and only this:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>Error</title>
</head>
<body>
<pre>Not Found</pre>
</body>
</html>
The problem was with different name of my app, that was in /dist/.
Name was totally different from my app-name.
I just decided to check if everything is all right when I generate "dist" direction.
So I went for "ng build" and found out that /dist direction holds different name.
Also to solve the problem with size you need to change it in "angular.json" budgets
