Rendering React on the Edge with Flareact and Cloudflare Workers
Flareact is a new open-source React framework built for Cloudflare Workers that allows developers to render their React apps at the edge rather than on the server, offering a hybrid approach of static-site generation and incremental regeneration. It supports file-based page routing, dynamic page paths, and edge-side data fetching APIs. Flareact is modeled after Next.js and offers similar functionality for getting applications to end-users quickly and efficiently. The framework aims to provide a seamless developer experience with features such as API Routes, local development support using wrangler dev command, and the ability to extend and customize the root document of the app.
