There is lots of potential. I'm working on a startup idea around Cloudflare at the moment.

Here is something that can help with Cloudflare horrible tooling: Use wasm/Rust. You'll be able to compile and run most of your code locally, and then when you deploy you have more odds of your code not bugging on the cloud.

Feels a lot like uploading PHP via FTP. The world moved on, I expect to test this stuff locally and if it breaks because of screwed up vendor tools, there better be source code.

It is PHP via FTP with a key-value database. The difference is that you have no server to manage and your code is deployed to hundreds of locations.
