To accomplish this, we built on some pretty great foundations: - ofc, @StainlessAPI SDK generation is the best in the world, so we use that same tech to automatically generate your API/SDK reference pages. - @astrodotbuild is probably the most flexible/robust OSS contentful site framework, we use Astro as the foundation of the OSS Stainless Docs framework. - @Cloudflare has a ridiculously robust global network, so we use them to power our one-click hosting.
Webflow does more then you think

best investors don't just give you money, they believe in you when the idea sounds crazy. @dok2001 just backed us to build an Intelligence layer for AI Agents. November already feels different. Building at @Cloudflare. 🚀

After getting to know Dillon over the past year I knew that I wanted to get an opportunity to work with him. His compassion for people and passion for building great products is unmatched. Excited to get to ship together!

So Anthropic agrees with us: AI agents are better at writing code than running tools, and future agents will probably do everything by writing code. But where should this code *run*? My recent Cloudflare Connect talk was all about exactly this! piped.video/watch?v=xUj4HQt_…

Drafting behind this tweet :) What do you want changed about Wrangler config? At CF, we feel like we know what needs to happen next -- but more direct user feedback is always better.
What should we build into the Cloudflare dashboard next? What's missing? What would make your life better if it existed?

hi everyone!👋 excited to share that i'm now working on @cloudflare workflows & queues! also... testing workflows locally just got better: you can now mock steps, simulate events, & inspect what's happening at each stage 🔍 if you have any feedback, please reach out!
We're introducing first-class support for Cloudflare Workflows in cloudflare:test, enabling full introspection, mocking, and isolated, reliable tests for your most complex applications. cfl.re/4hJL19Z

Putting easter eggs in the Cloudflare blog subtle enough to make readers feel insane if they find them
When you hear “Helping build a better Internet” what comes to mind first?

I tried to nerd snipe someone else to build this yesterday. Glad to see @strehldev's idea get extended and made open via GitHub PR.

Last month we released R2 SQL, a new distributed query engine designed for the @Cloudflare Edge. Come next week in SF to hear me talk about how we built it! Joining me will be @burakkarakann, CEO of @getbruin. Should be a fun time.

One of the perks of working at @Cloudflare is getting to illustrate this nonsense

Cloudflare is exceptionally good. A lot of the stack is custom, but it’s very well thought out so it’s not hard to get started. Im using them for a bunch of projects!

Couldn't resist joining in on all of the Cloudflare performance improvement fun Here are 3x faster build starts :) Side effect of Builds built on Workers --> faster container startups
Did you know Workers Builds are built on top of Containers? We're able to build the best product for developers when we build with that product. After some hard work behind the scenes, the time it takes to start your build should be even faster — by 3.3x in some cases.

Built in tracing is a game-changer feature for Cloudflare Workers. In early testing, we drastically decreased response times (almost 2x) for various APIs on Workers with the newly available data. So excited for this one, and can’t wait to do even more with it.
Cloudflare Workers' support for automatic tracing is now in open beta! Export traces to any OpenTelemetry-compatible provider for deeper application observability, no code changes required. cfl.re/4oHQeBu

okay, "𝚘𝚛𝚊𝚗𝚐𝚎 𝚒𝚜 𝚝𝚑𝚎 𝚗𝚎𝚠 𝚋𝚕𝚊𝚌𝚔", that is if you deploy vercel workflows on cloudflare. here's a POC of workflows being deployed with a cloudflare world - DB is handled in D1 Database - Workflow and Step Queues are handled in CF Queues - Stream chunk storage in a R2 Bucket I cannot stress enough how much the Workflow team REALLY cooked on making it so easy to extend the SDK and deploy it anywhere, and I urge you all to take a look into their repo and try it out!

A CF world is completely possible (and inevitable) someone launched an AWS world today -
