This post announces the convergence of Cloudflare Pages and Workers into a unified development and application hosting platform, emphasizing low-latency global compute, free egress, and access to storage, KV, Queues, and D1 databases. It introduces 'Smart Placement' for compute, which intelligently determines the optimal network location for application execution beyond just the edge. Developer tooling is enhanced with Wrangler v3, an upgraded VSCode-powered online editor, and improved Chrome DevTools. Resource limits (memory, CPU, bundle size) and startup latency limits are increased, with plans for simplified pricing. Pages CI now uses a modern build image with build caching. The post also highlights improved adapters for full-stack web frameworks (Next.js, Angular, Qwik, Astro, Nuxt, Solid) and the introduction of the C3 CLI for rapid application deployment.
