Could you make it work for nextjs-express example?

I am trying to get next.js+express app from next.js examplesworking on heroku but it doesn't. I keep getting module 'next' not found. Wondering what I need to change to make it work.

Curious question indeed! I was able to make it work by copying the custom server example out to it's own repo, then following those Production Deployment steps on the README.

Here's that example revised for Heroku:

…and a sample deployment:

I hope that new example is useful. Let me know how it goes 😄
