[Feature Request] README - Add section for using --deploy on existing dash application

[andrew-hossack]

@Coding-with-Adam what are your thoughts on adding a section to the README for deploying an existing dash app? Eg. If I already have a working app, what steps should I take to deploy it?

Example A and B in README are great, but use dashtools --init to create the app. I might like to see a section that explains how to upload my existing app:

1. Make sure app.py is in src directory
2. Make sure to include server=app.server

Do you think having another example for this would be good?

HI @andrew-hossack
Can you tell me more please. Do you mean something like Example D, where the user would not need to create a dash-tools project; they would just ensure they have the right folder structure and then...? How would that work?

[andrew-hossack]

The end goal here should be that as long as there is an app.py file, the deploy command will create all required files. Eg. you should be able to deploy any app you already have. Maybe waiting on writing in another Example D as you suggest would be the next steps after building this functionality.
