How to use HEROKU for a django project?
Good day!
There is a need to create a working site on django.
There is no possibility and sense to buy a whole VDS for this.
Tell me on Heroku.
If I run my django application there, i.e. site, then I can link my domain
and it will all work like a regular site?
Is there an instruction in Russian in an accessible way for a very beginner, how to launch a site on Heroku?
How much I watch on YouTube, etc., only misunderstandings remain in my head.

You can link your domain on all plans, including the free one. In general, yes, it will work like a regular site. But there will be a number of restrictions: going to sleep after 30 minutes of inactivity (if about a free plan), a limited choice of database, the inability to use file storage (you will have to use a database everywhere, i.e. there will be a limit on user downloads and files), limits on the number processes/workers.
Suppose some restrictions can be removed by choosing another PaaS, but in general, this kind of inconvenience will still persist.
Also, this is not entirely correct thesis:
Today, a normal VDS is 100-200 rubles per month (maybe even less), i.e. already cheaper than the paid Heroku plan.
