Field notes: shipping on the edge
Notes on deploying a site to 300+ cities with one terminal command, and why that matters for reach.
Your site is served from Cloudflare’s edge network, which means readers in Lisbon, Lagos, and Los Angeles all get near-instant loads. Speed is a ranking factor and a retention factor — high reach starts with not making people wait.
The deploy loop
Write a post, then run one command:
npm run deploy
That builds the site and pushes it to production in seconds. No servers, no CI setup required to get started.
