Cloudflare Pages
Cloudflare · 🌐 Static Hosting
Cloudflare Pages is a JAMstack platform for frontend developers to collaborate and deploy websites on Cloudflare's global edge network.
Overview
Cloudflare Pages builds your Git repository and serves the output from Cloudflare’s global edge network of 300+ cities. It is tightly integrated with Cloudflare Workers, so a static front end and serverless edge functions can live behind the same domain — with none of the cold-start penalty you get on traditional serverless platforms.
The free tier is unusually generous for static hosting: bandwidth and requests are unlimited, you get 500 builds per month, and you can host unlimited sites and custom domains with free SSL. Dynamic logic runs on the Workers free allocation, and you can attach KV, D1 (SQLite) and R2 (object storage) bindings directly to your project.
It is a natural fit for static and hybrid frameworks like Astro, Next.js, SvelteKit and Remix — especially when you want edge rendering, data bindings, or simply prefer to keep everything inside the Cloudflare ecosystem. Free-tier limits change periodically, so always confirm the current numbers on the provider’s site before relying on them.

FAQ
Yes. The free plan includes unlimited bandwidth and requests, 500 builds per month and unlimited sites; functions use the Workers free allowance. Limits change over time, so confirm the current numbers on Cloudflare's site.
Yes, through Pages Functions, which run on Cloudflare Workers at the edge. They suit APIs and server rendering rather than stateful, long-lived processes.
Pages builds and hosts your front end with optional Functions; Workers is the underlying serverless runtime. Pages Functions are Workers under the hood.
