I'm sorry if this is a dumb question, but how do you use this with Heroku?

You could compile it using Ubuntu 10.04 and then push the /app repository into Heroku or you could use this as a script to be run in Heroku itself in the Procfile.

e.g. It would say something like: "web: sh thisScript.sh" without the quotes, where thisScript.sh is exactly that. The only issue with that is that I believe compiling takes time and the running of thisScript.sh has a timeout of 60 seconds on Heroku.
