For anybody else that s interested after

For anybody else that's interested, after some further investigation, I can confirm that these docs are incorrect. If you deploy

_routes.json

_routes.json

, even when using advanced mode (

_worker.js

_worker.js

), you do not need to serve static assets using

env.ASSETS.fetch

env.ASSETS.fetch

-- it's done for you.
