Heroku does not precompile assets when deploying

Question

It very clearly says in its documentation that it would do this if I don\'t precompile them locally.

And truthfully, I have no interest in precompiling these locally.

Answer 1

The reason it would not deploy was because of Google fonts. Moving the file to your application.css such as :

 *= require_self
 *= require_tree .
 */


@import url(http://fonts.googleapis.com/css?family=Special+Elite);

Will allow the app to deploy, and for the fonts to work.
