Heroku is the OG of affordable rails hosting. If the tutorial is older than 3-4 years ago then it was published when Heroku was free, which it no longer is.

There are lots of other affordable, but probably not free, options now;

Any option for local hosting for development purpose ?

Also what happened to heroku free ?

[padseeker]

Salesforce bought it and there were too many freeloaders.

Options of "local hosting for development purposes"? Do you mean running "rails s" locally on your machine?

[arromatic]

Yeah, on my machine .
