Introduction to Cloudflare Workers
Cloudflare Workers is a serverless application platform that enables you to create and deploy functions to Cloudflare's Edge Network.
Unlike other serverless providers that only have regional data centers, Cloudflare's Edge Network consists of hundreds of servers all over the world.
Cloudflare Workers is a powerful platform, and this course serves as a great introduction for what it can do.
Follow along with Kristian Freeman as you build a localization engine that renders data based on the Edge location nearest to the application's user.
After this course, you'll be ready to start experimenting with your own Cloudflare Workers projects. Need an idea? Check out the suggested Portfolio Project for this course.
This course will give you a solid foundation to start developing serverless applications. Serverless is a great trend to explore and Cloudflare is at the forefront of the technology.
