$ heroku apps:create [name]

Setup you Buildbox Credentials on Heroku

$ heroku config:set BUILDBOX_AGENTS=[agent token]

Create a PostgreSQL Database (optional)

$ heroku addons:add heroku-postgresql:dev
$ heroku config | grep HEROKU_POSTGRESQL # Look for the color that Heroku chose for the database
$ heroku pg:promote HEROKU_POSTGRESQL_RED_URL

Deploy the code to Heroku
