Hey if I had a domain registered on another domain registrar and I wanted to switch to CloudFlare what would I have to do?
GAlso how do I check the plan I have on CloudFlare or change it and what it has?
AYou want to transfer the domain to Cloudflare? Or you want to keep it with the other registrar and just point various resolved domains to Cloudflare?
Gpoint various resolved domains?
Ado you just want a resolution of an address defined in a zone to ultimately be recognised and usable as an endpoint running on CF?
GSorry I'm a beginner and I understood nothing of what you just said 
GBut I'm pretty sure I just would want to transfer the domain to CloudFlare
Athen we'll go back a step. You have a domain: Regardless of where you want your application/api/whatever to run on (in this case, cloudflare being likely), do you want that domain to be managed by cloudflare, or by another provider?
AI'm just trying to determine whether you want everything associated with that domain handled and hosted by CF, whether you just want them to be the registrar for it but have DNS still managed by someone else, or whether you just want it hosted elsewhere, but individual domains be pointed to your CF endpoints - because the three have very different answers.
GWell I want to make a website and get a domain but I think the free plan on CloudFlare is probably not very good and the other ones are too expensive so I thought of buying a domain on probably Hostinger or another place but if I get more people on my website I would want to switch it to CloudFlare in the future since someone told me it's a pretty good one and Hostinger isn't very good. But basically I would want to transfer the whole domain name to CloudFlare I'm pretty sure
GNot 100% sure how it all works though xd
AThe free plan is fine, so long as you have reasonable expectations for traffic and worker load. If you're not familiar with DNS, and you're only doing this one thing with it, then yes, it probably makes the most sense to just have it all managed within the Cloudflare platform just for simplicity alone.
GJust in caseee because I'm also curious but I don't understand like any of the add-ons or anything like that what would happen if too many people started using a website and the website maybe didnt have the necessary add-ons because its the free plan?
AHave you run or read through https://developers.cloudflare.com/learning-paths/get-started/#live_website yet ?
Cloudflare Docs
Set up your application to benefit from Cloudflare's speed, security, and reliability.
GLike if I forgot to upgrade while the website gets more people that start using it or something like that xd
GUh no I don't think so xd
AThen give that a read before I invest time in trying to help you further, as it might answer what you want to know.
Aparticularly the bits about domains
GWait do I read all of them?
GOh alright
AAlso have a look at this bit under the dev console.
GI did see that but I didn't find anything about transferring domains or what would happen in that scenario
Gwait
GI'm dumb
GIs this for transfering the actual like whole domain name subscrition from one domain registrar to another?
GBy the way I'm looking at WordPress right now and it seems extremely limited even with the upgrades and wouldn't Canva be better for making a website template for the visual aspect of the website because I tried making one and it worked pretty well but I would have to buy the Canva subscription to publish it on my own custom domain name but it still seems better for making a website than WordPress since you can customize it more unless I'm missing something?
AIf you want to transfer the whole domain in, yeah.
GOhhh I see
GI think I just looked at the manage domains and register domains and forgot about transfer domains lol
GDo you know this btw?
KOnly concern at the moment is exception handling in snippets, what’s the best way?
If any type of error occurs in the snippet how would I know and how should I handle it?
In workers, I’d either catch exceptions and log/report or use tail and send to sentry for example. Can also see error analytics in workers/etc.

KSure. Generally speaking: Connect the client to the worker via a DO (https://developers.cloudflare.com/durable-objects/examples/websocket-hibernation-server/) and create another HTTP endpoint for the external endpoint and send it to the DO, which can relay it to all or specific websocket connections.
Cloudflare Docs
Build a WebSocket server using WebSocket Hibernation on Durable Objects and Workers.
HThat looks fine to me?
HYou could also use AsyncLocalStorage if that is what you prefer, but what you have is the most "framework-supported"
KThe DO manages the long-lived Websocket connection to the client and handles the push of your external services' messages to the client, so it's required.
If you're worried about cost: When using websocket hibernation you don't pay for the pure existance of a websocket connection, just when messages are exchanged, generally speaking.

Mdoes this apply to worker-based WS as well? in terms of costs
Dshouldn't it be possible with the new workflows too?
KWhat do you mean? You always need a Worker
Msorry - i mean: do you get charged for idle worker-only websocket connections
PHi im trying to use the browser rendering api and my page.goto method wont resolve
even though im intercepting the req and responding to it using puppeteer request interception
any help would be appreciated

Adoes it mean that #browser-rendering-api will be discontinued because it was archived?
Wnope
WThere just isn't a need for a dedicated channel for it, this one & #workers-help are the best to use
WWe need to archive channels to keep the channel list as low as possible, it's overwhelming to have 40 different Workers channels to choose from for example
Apfff.. Thanks for clarifing that!
