      1. I am _so_ late to the party but Serverless & Cloudflare Workers have just clicked in my mind 🤯 I now want to build all the things with it. *Queue theme music* 🎶 It's time for Mike's New Side Project 🎶

      Huge shout-out to @wesbos and @stolinski on @syntaxfm with the recent episode on this. Can't pinpoint exactly what they said that made me "believe" ™️ but I think my subconscious was just processing their words over the weekend

    So smashed a couple of _super_ basic Cloudflare Workers today, but I have a better understanding and thinking of how I could apply it in the real-world. I'll write a blog post when I get the time, my code is data manipulation but the concepts remain. Free hosting for functions

      One week ago I had not scooby as to what Cloudflare Workers were, how they worked and what you did with them. Today I deployed my first worker to production on a client site. Which now means my blog post is out of date 😒 mikestreety.co.uk/blog/what-are-cloud-functions-cloudflare-workers-and-serverless

        It isn't overly complex, it adds a cookie when a particular path is requested, but saves on server load, client requests & avoids hacky code.

          I wrote a blog post last night with a niche but practical example of how you can use Cloudflare Workers mikestreety.co.uk/blog/using-cloudflare-workers-to-set-a-cookie-based-on-a-get-parameter-or-path Hopefully more examples coming soon as I understand them more 🤓
