Cloudflare Pages is a hosting platform for static sites with a global CDN, built-in preview deployments, support for Workers/Functions and WebSocket, as well as unlimited traffic. The platform also provides strong security (WAF, DDoS protection, HTTPS/HTTP/3), which is especially important for public projects.
