REST APIs with Flask and Python - Adding the Required Files to the Project

This video tutorial guides viewers through deploying a Python application on Heroku. It covers setting up the runtime environment, specifying required libraries, configuring uwsgi, creating a Procfile, and deploying the application. The tutorial emphasizes the importance of correct file naming and configuration settings to ensure successful deployment. It also highlights the use of Heroku's buildpacks and the need to update Python versions as they change.

What is the purpose of the runtime.txt file in a Heroku deployment?

• To list all the Python libraries required

• To specify the Python version being used

• To configure the uwsgi process

• To define the type of dyno to use
