What This Skill Covers
- You can build, run, and test your Worker code on your own local machine before deploying it to Cloudflare's network. This is made possible through Miniflare,...
- Main sections:
Core concepts,Worker execution vs Bindings,Local development,Defaults,Bindings during local development.
Workflow
- Open the most relevant file under
docs/for the exact documented workflow and wording. - Open
schemas/files for exact structured contracts. - Open
examples/files for concrete requests, commands, snippets, and manifests. - Do not add behavior or configuration that is not present in the attached source files.
