Cloudflare Pages

Serve a static frontend from Cloudflare, with optional request-handling functions.

Choose it for

  • Static sites and built frontends
  • Projects already using Cloudflare

Decision

Choose Pages for static output. For a full-stack app, check whether the current Workers route and adapter are the better fit.

Trade-off

Do not select Pages just because a framework can build locally; first verify its production runtime.

Cost model

Static hosting and Workers-based function usage

Current official pricing ↗

First boundary to learn

A static host does not run arbitrary server code. Verify your framework output and adapter.
