I figured out how to do this.
I must say it's awesome to have my own Heroku. I already had my own web server (bare metal) in my home office; I can host hundreds of websites for the price of high speed Internet (which I need anyway) and a few cents of electricity for running the server 24/7. But now I can easily self-host multiple modern web apps as well -- as many as I want, with plenty of resources (database, CPU, hard drive space) for free. That's why I think this is very important.
Most "garage" apps and games would fall in-between Heroku's free tier (great for "Hello World") and having enough income from your apps to be able to jump to paying for it (monthly fee).
I do hope that CWP makes it out-of-the-box easy to host such web apps in the future.
Again, I refer to the kinds of deployments that require Heroku or some cloud service because the app is always running (Javascript) on the back end. You can't host Node.js or React.js apps with standard Linux/PHP/MySQL webhosting.
