Awesome post! I'm reading through it and this struck me as odd:
> For buildpack-based deployments, the location of the app.json file should be at the root of your repository. Dockerfile-based app deploys should have the app.json in the configured WORKDIR directory; otherwise, Dokku defaults to the buildpack app behaviour of looking in /app.
Thats definitely incorrect now, and was changed in 0.30.0[1] but I neglected to update the docs. I'll get that sorted out now.

The `Procfile` `release` process is there to emulate Heroku's `release` process support.

The cron support in `app.json` does not support running dokku commands, so folks cannot schedule postgres backups in there without doing something spooky/not recommended.
With the app.json file, can you confirm what the default path for it should be? it seems like the default is placing app.json in the root directory of a project, but i'm still unsure.
You've clarified though that we can adjust this with
Yeah you can just place it in the root of your repo. If you deploy a docker image via `git:from-image` or `git:load-image`, the file is extracted from the image itself, otherwise it is from the committed source code root. You can always change the path as you showed above.
