I have a mini project for practicing my skills in React and Laravel and I wanted to deploy it online so I can add it to my portfolio and also for future job applications.
Does it work if I deploy the front end code (React) in Netlify and the back end code (Laravel) in Heroku?
Wanted to test it out since its both free to deploy in those ways. I already tried deploying both front end and back end in just Heroku and wanted to test some things differently.
Yes, it's possible you just have to add Functions to your front app.

Hope this helps.
