No jargon, no judgement. Here's what the words mean.
- AI (artificial intelligence): software that can understand requests, write, plan and create. We use it to take on the jobs you don't want to do.
- Analytics: counting visits to your site, which pages people read and where they came from.
- Cloudflare: a company that runs a huge network of computers around the world. Your site runs on it, close to your visitors.
- Cloudflare Worker: a small program that runs on Cloudflare's network and builds your site's pages. No server of your own needed.
- D1: Cloudflare's database, where your site keeps its information (accounts, articles, messages).
- Deploy: putting a change live on your website.
- DNS: the internet's address book. It tells browsers where to find your domain.
- Domain: your web address, such as bootapp.uk.
- HTTPS: the padlock in your browser. It means the connection to the site is encrypted.
- Rollback: putting the previous version of your site back if a change goes wrong.
- Static assets: the files that don't change per visitor, such as styles, scripts and images.
- Two-factor login (2FA): a second check when you log in, usually a 6-digit code from an app on your phone.
- Wrangler: Cloudflare's command-line tool for building and deploying Workers.
