my Procfile

web: node web.js

my package.json

{
  "name": "tattoohipfront",
  "private": true,
  "devDependencies": {
    "autoprefixer-core": "^5.2.1",
    "grunt": "^0.4.5",
    "grunt-angular-templates": "^0.5.7",
    "grunt-concurrent": "^1.0.0",

    "jit-grunt": "^0.9.1",
    "time-grunt": "^1.0.0",
    "jshint-stylish": "^1.0.0"
  },
  "engines": {
    "node": ">=0.10.0"
  },
  "dependencies": {
    "express": "^4.13.4",
    "gzippo": "^0.2.0"

  },
  "scripts": {
    "start": "node web.js"
  }
}

and my web.js

var gzippo = require('gzippo');
  var express = require('express');
  var app = express();

  app.use(gzippo.staticGzip("" + __dirname + "/dist"));
  app.listen(process.env.PORT || 5000);

all my files are in the root directory , and there is no error when I run the grunt serve , the error remains only heroku ...

I'm doing the deploy in heroku my machine with windows 7 and using powershell

cannot GET usually means there are no matching routes for the given URL — adeneo

What does heroku logs --tail say?

Based on all the grunt dependencies, I'm betting you're going to want to move grunt to dependencies from devDependencies (or heroku config:set NPM_CONFIG_PRODUCTION=false). You'll also need to run your grunt build in postinstall:

"scripts": {
  "postinstall": "grunt build"
}

Heroku has a tutorial on this:
