App: Trumpet Offers Simple, Consistent Notification to Site Visitors
Trumpet is a simple CloudFlare App that allows users to place a short message on top of every page on their website. It was developed by Martin Reistadbakk as a solution for clients who needed to notify users about planned maintenance and downtime. The app is designed to be reliable, small, lightweight, and without any dependencies on JavaScript libraries. Trumpet can show messages across all pages and will not display them again for 24 hours after the user dismisses it. It was originally a Google App Engine project but has since been integrated into CloudFlare's platform, making it faster and more reliable.
