Our Cloudflare Pages Development Services
Alpina Tech builds and deploys web applications on Cloudflare Pages for teams that want fast, globally distributed hosting with minimal infrastructure management. We handle project setup, build configuration, Functions integration, and performance optimization — delivering sites that load from the nearest edge location worldwide.
Project Setup & Git Integration
We configure Cloudflare Pages projects connected to your codebase:
- GitHub and GitLab repository integration with automatic deployments on push
- Build configuration for Next.js, Nuxt, Astro, SvelteKit, Gatsby, Hugo, and other frameworks
- Environment variables and secrets management per environment
- Monorepo support with root directory and build command configuration
- Custom build images and dependency caching for faster build times
Preview Deployments & Branch Management
Every pull request gets its own deployment. We set up:
- Automatic preview URLs for every branch and pull request
- Branch-based deployment controls — production branch, preview branches, and skipped branches
- Preview URL access policies with Cloudflare Access for staging protection
- Comment integrations for deployment status in pull requests
- Build watch paths to skip unnecessary rebuilds in monorepos
Cloudflare Functions & Full-Stack
For applications that need server-side logic, we integrate Pages Functions:
- API routes using file-based routing in the /functions directory
- KV namespace bindings for key-value data storage at the edge
- D1 database bindings for SQL queries on Cloudflare’s distributed SQLite
- R2 bucket bindings for object storage without egress fees
- Durable Objects integration for stateful, real-time applications
Migration to Cloudflare Pages
We migrate projects from other hosting platforms:
- Vercel migration — adapting API routes, middleware, and environment configuration
- Netlify migration — converting netlify.toml to Cloudflare Pages configuration, remapping redirects and headers
- Traditional hosting migration — converting server-rendered sites to static or edge-rendered builds
- DNS cutover with zero-downtime strategy using Cloudflare’s DNS proxy
- Build pipeline validation — ensuring output parity between old and new environments
We optimize delivery across Cloudflare’s network:
- Custom headers and redirect rules via _headers and _redirects files
- Cache control policies for static assets and API responses
- Web Analytics integration for privacy-first performance monitoring
- Custom domain configuration with automatic SSL certificate provisioning
- Integration with Cloudflare WAF, Rate Limiting, and Bot Management for production security
We extend these configurations with Cloudflare Workers for advanced routing and middleware.
How We Approach Cloudflare Pages Projects
Framework Assessment
We evaluate your frontend framework and build output to confirm Cloudflare Pages compatibility. Static site generators, SSR frameworks with edge adapters, and SPAs all deploy differently — we select the right configuration for your stack.
Build & Deploy Pipeline
We connect your repository, configure build settings, and validate the first deployment. Preview deployments activate immediately so your team can review changes before production.
Functions & Data Layer
If your application needs server-side logic, we implement Functions with appropriate bindings — KV for caching, D1 for relational data, R2 for file storage. Each binding is tested in preview before production deployment.
Optimization & Handoff
We configure caching, headers, and redirects for production performance. Your team receives documentation on the deployment workflow, environment management, and how to extend Functions as the application grows.
Technology Stack with Cloudflare Pages
Hosting & Deployment
- Cloudflare Pages — edge-deployed static and full-stack hosting
- Pages Functions — serverless compute at the edge with file-based routing
- Wrangler CLI — local development, testing, and manual deployments
- Git integration — automatic builds from GitHub and GitLab pushes
Data & Storage
- Cloudflare KV — globally distributed key-value storage
- Cloudflare D1 — serverless SQLite database at the edge
- Cloudflare R2 — S3-compatible object storage with zero egress fees
- Durable Objects — strongly consistent stateful edge compute
Supported Frameworks
- Next.js, Nuxt, SvelteKit — SSR frameworks with Cloudflare edge adapters
- Astro, Gatsby, Hugo, Eleventy — static site generators
- React, Vue, Angular — single-page application builds
- Remix — full-stack framework with Cloudflare Pages adapter
Business Benefits
- Global edge deployment by default — every Cloudflare Pages site serves from 300+ locations worldwide. No CDN configuration needed — your assets and Functions execute from the nearest edge node to each visitor.
- Zero infrastructure management — no servers, containers, or scaling configuration. Push code to Git and Cloudflare handles builds, deployments, SSL, and global distribution automatically.
- Generous free tier — 500 builds per month, unlimited sites, unlimited bandwidth, and unlimited requests on the free plan. Most small-to-medium projects run without any hosting cost.
- Preview deployments for every branch — every pull request gets a unique URL. Designers, PMs, and QA review changes in production-identical environments before merging.
- Full-stack on the edge — Pages Functions, KV, D1, and R2 let you build complete applications without separate backend infrastructure. Server-side logic runs at the edge alongside your frontend.
- No egress fees — Cloudflare does not charge for bandwidth. R2 storage eliminates egress costs for file serving. Predictable billing regardless of traffic volume.
