A modern demonstration of containerization, CI/CD pipelines, and static edge deployment through Cloudflare Pages.
How this page gets from a Git commit to the global edge network
The code is packaged into an NGINX Alpine Docker container. This ensures that the environment is strictly defined, consistent, and reproducible anywhere.
A workflow is triggered upon pushing to the main branch. The container is built and run locally within the pipeline to perform HTTP curl tests.
After tests pass, the static artifact is deployed to Cloudflare Pages via Wrangler, distributing the content globally for ultra-fast load times.
While Cloudflare Pages serves static files inherently, packing the app into a Docker image proves the concept of containerization. It allows us to spin up a fully isolated NGINX web server during CI/CD to validate the build artifacts before they reach production.
By leveraging Cloudflare Pages, we eliminate the need to manage infrastructure for the static frontend. The content is cached across global edge nodes, bringing latency close to zero while handling massive scale effortlessly.
