@ritakozlov Wait this is actually so cool. Need to use this for some projects here.
I assume this isnt hosting images like a cdn just operations?

@ritakozlov wait cloudflare images is a thing?! Tell me more
@ritakozlov Presigned key upload from browser when? Don’t want to mess with the special R2 keys, just want to generate they key using IMAGE binding
@ritakozlov dumb question - supposing I have a bunch of ~30mp straight out of camera jpegs and heics and I want to serve them as 1-2 variants of avif thumbnails with a full quality file view on click, what’s the impetus to upscale in server vs locally in my upload pipeline?
@itsnoahd you can do either! hosting or proxy via cdn
@ritakozlov dumb question but is images just images ? been meaning to check it out and migrate my R2 media handling to image bindings but I handle audio and video toooo (yes I should just go read the docs)
@itsnoahd @ritakozlov You can use @Railway buckets just saying
@ritakozlov Love image transformations! So easy and powerful!
@jokull cc @heydna_
@ritakozlov Neither me or my agent can't keep up with Cloudflare updates :)
@ritakozlov upscale/downscale/transform etc
@ritakozlov Even better. Will 100% be using this. Thanks!
@CodeWithZeee yes but stream is video and actually supports very similar bindings! so you can handle all your media in one place
@RaoTwts @ritakozlov @Railway Oh totally and I already do! I just like to toy around with lots of tech and use em for projects. Helps me know whats around and how it works!
Cloudflare is one of my favorite companies (Railway still #1 by a long shot), love what they do so like to mess around with it.
@ritakozlov It's time for the world to wake up to Cloudflare Images
