Discussion on: Hosting an App with Heroku and Netlify (if you've never done it before)

So your project might vary - my server project doesn't have a start command that Heroku deals with. It just needs access to the GitHub repo.

This error looks like it can't find a start command. That'll be in your package.json file if it exists. If it's there, you might try running npm run start - the run command is necessary for most npm scripts, though sometimes start will work without it.

Hope that helps! From your other comment, it looks like your build succeeded, so hopefully you're able to move forward!
