More Node.js APIs in Cloudflare Workers — Streams, Path, StringDecoder
Cloudflare has announced support for three additional APIs from Node.js in their Workers platform, increasing compatibility with the existing ecosystem of open-source npm packages. The new APIs include Node.js Streams, PathStringDecoder, and StringDecoder. This expansion will allow developers to use their preferred libraries within Workers even if they depend on APIs from Node.js. Furthermore, a preview version of a new module type that mirrors the Node.js environment more closely has been shared in the open-source Workers runtime. These updates demonstrate Cloudflare's commitment to enhancing the capabilities and utility of their Workers platform for developers.
