puts a 'deploy to heroku' button into the README, so that when the repo is cloned / forked to start a new project, a user can immediately deploy a live version to heroku

refer to root-systems/dogstack#87

please squash commits as many were experimental 😅

also noting - the 'official' deployment (https://dogstack.herokuapp.com/) of this example app is out of date, once this PR is good then we should update that deployment too.

"env": {
"APP_URL": {
"description": "the url that the app is running at (if you are deploying from the README, replace [app name] below with the app name you chose above)",

@iainkirkpatrick It’s not clear what was called “[app name] above”

I’d also suggest adding some simple instructions to the reader file by the button stepping a new user through getting an app name and editing this app.json file before clicking the button.

@agentlewis do you mean “with the app name you chose above” is unclear? That refers to the form you get taken to when you click the button - is it unclear in the context of that form?

The user shouldn’t have to edit anything before clicking the button - when they click and get to the form, they just make up a name for their app

Or am I misunderstanding you maybe?

Ah sorry I didnt understand that the button took you to a form. I get it now.

Maybe just say the heroku app name. “Above” made me feel I missed something.
