Using Workers To Make Static Sites Dynamic
Aug 26, 2018Guest Author

Summary
This post details the initial use cases of Cloudflare Workers for dynamic functionality on static websites. It introduces code examples for geo-targeting by reading the 'Cf-Ipcountry' header and redirecting to localized versions of sites. It also demonstrates restricting access to content by checking for a specific 'user-agent' header and implementing A/B testing by fetching and executing A/B testing scripts at the edge before rendering the UI, thus avoiding post-load JavaScript flicker. The post highlights Workers' advantages over client-side JavaScript and server-rendered sites in terms of performance and ease of integration.
