It's a bit unclear, is the site stored on Cloudflare and served from there using workers? Is there a storage limit?

(PM of Workers KV here)

I took a look at the code, and they're storing the contents in KV; this means that there's a 2MB limit on any particular file's size. Other than that, there's no limits, though you will be paying if you have a ton of stuff or excessive use. See here: https://developers.cloudflare.com/workers/reference/storage/...

Just to be clear you'd have to pay $5 a month to use KV at all?

Also wanted to mention I love what you're doing with workers. I was reading that Cloudflare is posting about hosting websites on workers this friday... I'm guessing you need to pay to use KV for that as well?

Yes, you have to be on the $5/month plan to use KV at all. I would like to eventually offer a free tier as well, but we're not quite there yet.

Thank you! :D

I can't say anything now about that until Friday.

This has so much potential

Read the announcement teaser too and have been super excited for it to drop

Glad to hear it :D

Same here! I was making this before I saw the teaser announcement. Figured I'd wait until Friday before continuing work since it may obviate this entirely. :-)

Here it is! https://blog.cloudflare.com/workers-sites/
