2. Set the custom buildpack:

   $ heroku config:add BUILDPACK_URL="https://github.com/goshakkk/heroku-buildpack-elixir.git" -a YOUR_APP

3. Specify a preferred Erlang/OTP version by creating a .preferred_otp_version with contents OTP_R16B:

   $ echo "OTP_R16B" > .preferred_otp_version

4. Specify a preferred Elixir version by creating a .preferred_elixir_version with contents master:

   $ echo "master" > .preferred_elixir_version

5. Create a Procfile with a web process defined:

   $ echo 'web: MIX_ENV=prod mix server -p $PORT' > Procfile

6. Add and commit your changes:

   $ git add Procfile .preferred_otp_version .preferred_elixir_version $ git commit -m "Setup for Heroku"

7. Deploy!
