cloudflare workers in javascript

Cloudflare Workers is a serverless platform that allows developers to build and run JavaScript applications on Cloudflare's global network of servers.

To get started with Cloudflare Workers in JavaScript, follow these steps:

  1. Create an account on Cloudflare and navigate to the Workers dashboard.
  2. Click "Create a Worker" and give your worker a name.
  3. Write your JavaScript code in the editor provided.
  4. Click "Save and Deploy" to deploy your worker to Cloudflare's network.
  5. Test your worker by navigating to the URL associated with your worker.

Here is an example of a simple Cloudflare worker written in JavaScript:

index.tsx
addEventListener('fetch', event => {
  event.respondWith(handleRequest(event.request))
})

async function handleRequest(request) {
  const response = await fetch(request)
  const headers = { 'Content-Type': 'text/html' }
  const body = await response.text()

  return new Response(body, { headers })
}
302 chars
12 lines

This worker simply fetches the requested URL, sets the Content-Type header to text/html, and returns the response body.

Cloudflare Workers also provides powerful features like edge caching, request handling, and security measures that can be configured through the Cloudflare dashboard or programmatically using the Cloudflare API.
