Wrangler config docs falsely state that "main" key is required

What changes are you suggesting?

The "Inheritable keys" section of the documentation page states (in the "Note" aside at the top of the section and in the list of keys below) that the main key is required in a Wrangler config in order to deploy a worker. However, as I found when making a worker, Wrangler accepts configs with no main key without warnings or errors, e.g., for static sites that are generated on the user's machine before invoking Wrangler. Other pages include examples of wrangler.jsonc files that don't provide the main key.

Hi @dan5sch , thanks for this issue.

The main key is generally required in the Wrangler file, unless it has an assets key in the file (in other words, the Worker uses static assets).

We'll make this guidance explicit through this PR: #24313

Thank you for flagging!

Thanks for adding the clarification!
