Are you doing it on Rust? TypeScript with Workers is a dream. Consider that, while it is not yet fully mature, you can build and launch your app once and it is global-first. It costs like $100 or less to run at significant scale. It's a dream.

Once you have the app running in the cloud, Workers are a great runtime. Super solid with great perf and uptime. But CF still needs to improve local DX, a lot.

Yes. There is a steep discovery curve for the wasm target. However, it makes it easier for development because once your code compile, it’ll probably run fine. There are some gotchas related to the platforms but once you learn them, you’ll be fine. Still, none of this is documented and the worker crate is practically unmaintained.
