dumb question about Wrangler
Hey, I just wanted to know if I had to install Wrangler in the Worker environment through a command interface of some sort or if I had to install it on my local machine. Sorry about the dumb question.

local machine. There is no workers environment. Unlike other serverless platforms, Workers run as V8 Isolates, like a chrome tab (V8 being a Javascript engine, same as chrome uses). You don't get a container, you can't launch procesesses, no file system, etc, all you can do is run code, use memory, fetch, a browser-like environment.

Not a dumb question 🙂
