✨ Spin up a temp homepage for a project you're working on. ✨
This project returns a synthetic homepage for an app or site you haven't built yet, but have perhaps bought a domain for. Return some info about your project if you aren't ready to figure out hosting yet.
- Sign into GitHub
- Sign into / up for Fastly and grab an API key
- Click the Deploy to Fastly button in this repo
- The Cloud Deploy flow will walk you through cloning the repo and deploying it to a Fastly Compute service
- Edit the
/src/homepage.htmlcontent to include your own details, let people know about your project or how to get in touch with you - When you push to the main branch, the GitHub actions in the repo will use Fastly CLI to deploy your changes to the Compute service
- Set your domain to point at your Fastly service
- When your project is ready to publish at the domain, update your Fastly service origin or edge compute logic to show it!
This project is a remix of the default Fastly Compute starter kit.
This starter is intentionally lightweight, and requires no dependencies aside from the @fastly/js-compute npm package. It will help you understand the basics of processing requests at the edge using Fastly. This starter includes implementations of common patterns explained in our using Compute and VCL migration guides.
The starter doesn't require the use of any backends. Once deployed, you will have a Fastly service running on Compute that can generate synthetic responses at the edge.
The template uses webpack to bundle index.js and its imports into a single JS file, bin/index.js, which is then wrapped into a .wasm file, bin/index.wasm using the js-compute-runtime CLI tool bundled with the @fastly/js-compute npm package, and bundled into a .tar.gz file ready for deployment to Compute.
For more details about other starter kits for Compute, see the Fastly developer hub
