blog hosting on cloudflare workers

as i was searching for a low cost way to have a blog,i found it on the github.

mine : blog.wcyz.eu.org
(welcome to visit ,discuss part will be added in the future)

with this you can easily have your own blog even without any cost. and you don't need lots of knowledge of the program.

Unfortunately, it is build by Chinese(i get the help from my chinese friends and google to do that),and it have not been updated for 2 years, therefore,there are some bugs.
However,if you only have tight budget,even you don't want to have any money spending on it ,it still deserve a try.

So in the following days i may publish the series of instructions to build it and maybe translate the project to English.(If my procrastination do not catch me up o:) )

  • for simple blogs you can use cloudflare pages

  • Take a look at this new project. https://docs.astro.build/en/guides/deploy/cloudflare/
    It supports Markdown blog out of the box.
    You can deploy to Cloudflare pages. Any server side is handled by Cloudflare Worker.

    Thanks for sharing your idea.

    Your test blog worked okay for me. When I clicked on "menu" (the three bars) then "sitemap" at the bottom, raw XML was displayed in my browser.

    What happened to all the free blog sites that I remember seeing in the past, but never tried. Isn't that where Wordpress got their start? Did they abandon free blog sites?

  • so many static site generators already exist with an active community and regular updates. i wouldn't waste time on an old github project and instead focus on one of the new projects.

    cloudflare also provides tutorials on how to do this

    I'd prefer Cloudflare Pages, no need to worry about a broken bot hitting your blog and exhausting the free tier 100k daily request limit, it also has integrated support for Workers in the same project. That said, it might be interesting if someone start a Jamstack blogging platform that lives entirely on Cloudflare (posts & comments stored on R2, Workers handle accepting input, then they're statically rendered to Pages)

    you are right ,Cloudflare Pages can prevent the annoying attack.

  • @ujiio You can easily include quotes from multiple posts in a single reply instead of commenting like that. :(
    @jbiloh Wonder if there is any feature to prevent doubleposting. Something like merging posts written by the same user automatically. ;)

    Never have an intention of criticizing you. I didn't know you are new one here.
