Show HN: Just Fucking Use Cloudflare - A satirical guide to the CF
stack
Inspired by the recent justfuckingusetailwind.com, I built a
similar "love letter" to the Cloudflare ecosystem. I find myself
reaching for Workers, R2, D1, and KV for almost every project
lately, so I wanted to capture that sentiment in a single, slightly
over-the-top page. It's a simple side project, but the stack is:
- Vite + TypeScript - Biome + Ultracite - Deployed (obviously) on
Cloudflare First draft in Claude, the copy was drafted with Grok
to get that specific tone, then I used Google's AI Studio to
accelerate the build with touch up's in Cursor. Link:

to hear everyone's thoughts on the CF stack vs alternatives and
more traditional deployments.
