Cloudflare provides a great CDN with no egress charges on bandwidth. The best way to use Cloudflare is through Cloudflare Pages.

Using Cloudflare Pages should be pretty straightforward for most frameworks that generate a SPA. However, see the example below for how to use Cloudflare Pages from asset pipelines for Ruby on Rails and Django.

Example: Publish Django Static Files with GitHub Actions​

Here is an example of using GitHub Actions to publish Django static files:

- name: Build Static Files
  run: |
    docker run --env STATIC_ROOT='/static-compiled/' \
               --env DATABASE_URL='sqlite:///db.sqlite' \
               -v $PWD/static:/app/static \
               -v $PWD/static-compiled:/static-compiled \
               $ECR_REGISTRY/$ECR_REPOSITORY:$IMAGE_TAG \
               python manage.py collectstatic --noinput

- name: Publish Static Files
  uses: cloudflare/wrangler-action@2.0.0
  with:
    apiToken: ${{ secrets.CF_API_TOKEN }}
    accountId: ${{ secrets.CF_ACCOUNT_ID }}
    command: pages publish ./static-compiled --project-name=opszero-static --commit-dirty=true
