Deliver an HTML page from an HTML string directly inside the Worker script.
const html = `<!DOCTYPE html><body> <h1>Hello World</h1> <p>This markup was generated by a Cloudflare Worker.</p></body>`
async function handleRequest(request) { return new Response(html, { headers: { "content-type": "text/html;charset=UTF-8", }, })}
addEventListener("fetch", event => { return event.respondWith(handleRequest(event.request))})Return JSON directly from a Worker script, useful for building APIs and middleware.
addEventListener("fetch", event => { const data = { hello: "world" }
const json = JSON.stringify(data, null, 2)
return event.respondWith( new Response(json, { headers: { "content-type": "application/json;charset=UTF-8" } }) )})Redirect requests from one URL to another, or from one set of URLs to another set.
const destinationURL = "https://example.com"const statusCode = 301
async function handleRequest(request) { return Response.redirect(destinationURL, statusCode)}
addEventListener("fetch", async event => { event.respondWith(handleRequest(event.request))})Access custom Cloudflare properties and control how Cloudflare features are applied to every request.
addEventListener("fetch", event => { const data = event.request.cf !== undefined ? event.request.cf : { error: "The `cf` object is not available inside the preview." }
return event.respondWith( new Response(JSON.stringify(data, null, 2), { headers: { "content-type": "application/json;charset=UTF-8" } }) )})Respond to the Worker request with the response from another website (example.com in this example).

addEventListener("fetch", event => { event.respondWith(handleRequest(event.request))})Redirect requests to certain URLs based on a mapped object to the request's URL.

addEventListener("fetch", async event => { event.respondWith(handleRequest(event.request))})Determine how to cache a resource by setting TTLs, custom cache keys, and cache headers in a fetch request.
async function handleRequest(request) { const url = new URL(request.url)
