Cloudflare Fullstack Patterns

Implementation Workflows

1. D1 + Drizzle Configuration

To ensure seamless migrations and type safety:

• Set migrations_dir in wrangler.jsonc to match Drizzle's output folder (default: "drizzle").
• Use nodejs_compat compatibility flag in wrangler.jsonc.
• Export schema from a dedicated file (e.g., src/db/schema.ts).

2. Workers AI with AI SDK 6 (Structured Output)

To avoid LLM hallucinations and ensure valid JSON:

• Use generateText with Output.object instead of deprecated generateObject.
• Always define a Zod schema for the expected output.
• Pass the Cloudflare AI binding via createWorkersAI from workers-ai-provider.

3. Stateful Orchestration with Workflows

To build resilient multi-step pipelines:

• Define a class extending WorkflowEntrypoint<CloudflareBindings, PayloadType>.
• Wrap side effects (DB writes, AI calls, fetches) in step.do() for automatic retries and state persistence.
• Register the workflow in wrangler.jsonc with binding, name, and class_name.

4. Avoiding "Shadowing" Friction

• Ensure public/index.html does not conflict with Worker routes defined in Hono.
• If using Hono for SSR at /, ensure the static asset directory (e.g., ./public) does not contain an index.html unless it is the intended entry point.
