Research direction

Start with the production tutorial at https://www.apollographql.com/docs/tutorial/production.html and trace the order of service setup, endpoint configuration, Zeit Now deployment, and deployment to the Apollo engine. Done means the tutorial presents these actions in the dependency order needed to provide a working service endpoint before engine deployment.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

i believe in https://www.apollographql.com/docs/tutorial/production.html you are showing the wrong order of actions needed to properly deploy the apollo service to the engine.

To set up a service we need to provide endpoint. I assume this endpoint should be coming from Zeit Now. Yet deployment of the service to Now is described further down the road.
Wouldn't it make more sense to describe it first and then go to deploying the service to the engine?
