I was following along to a tutorial and downloaded the prebuilt site. Made minor changes on November 18, 2013 as shown in my github commits. And then pushed to Heroku but getting errors.

This is the result that I got when I ran heroku logs

While reading the documentation from docpad on deploying to Heroku I did not notice that I needed to run heroku config:add NODE_ENV=production
from the terminal. But still no success.
The logs mention http://docpad.org/extension-not-rendering, which is just a conversation between people complaining about this issue. And someone suggests a plugin for windows (I am on a mac).
![plugin](https://i.stack.imgur.com/gSB6y.png)
And then another person says that he solved this by adding *.min.css
files to a folder called static.
![fixed with](https://i.stack.imgur.com/AbTf3.png)
But where are those files in the first place, and where should I create this static file. and am I missing anything else?
