title: How do I move from development to production with my Ruby on Rails project on Heroku?
body: <p>I've been learning Ruby on Rails whilst making my first app for a couple of months now, and it's finally ready to start to be used by a few unlucky friends as beta testers. Problem is, I have no idea as to how to move from development to production. The app is on Heroku, and up to this point I've just been pushing the local development database to Heroku whenever I push the app.</p>
  
  <p>I know I'm supposed to create a production database to put on Heroku, but how do I do this? Is there a guide somewhere? How do I manage the production database once it's on Heroku, if I need to run migrations on it?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks for reading</p>
