So the big reason why I have migrated to Cloudflare Pages for my site, is because it is so much easier to work on my site, test changes before they go public. I am able to push my changes to my GitHub repo for my site, and it kicks off a job immediately to update the site. It also builds the other branches on the fly as well, but gives them a unique link that isn't mapped to the regular live link so you can see the development builds of your site beside your live site.

As you can see from the image above you can see how it pulls, builds, and generates a unique site link for each commit. So as you can see, it on the back-end remaps your domain to the deployment link of the latest build. All the previous build hang around as well, so if I mess up on a build I can click the dots next to the build I need to go back to and the site will immediately roll back to that version of the site.

So as I stated earlier, I also have been hosting an API server for people to use that uses my key to check against the [LastFM API](https://last.fm/) to get their Now Playing data and able to use it inside of NeosVR. I have to parse it into something not JSON or XML so that it is more easy to parse the data in game. So I was using a PHP script, but looking at the Cloudflare Workers... I am able to allow 100,000 requests every 24 hours. I haven't gotten over 45% usage yet. But even when I do the pricing is very affordable and there is no cold starts. All I had to do was teach myself JavaScript... which only took a day.

The image above shows the weekly report of my workers usage data. You also see, I have setup a lastfm-legacy that maps overtop of the old link for the lastfm system some people are still pointing at but has been re-written on the back-end to JavaScript on a Worker so that it gives them time to update to the new one.
