IMO this addresses what has been Cloudflare's biggest competitive advantage for years - Fastly was out of budget for hobbyists meaning it was much harder for developers to kick the wheels on it.
Looks like the interesting stuff is only on a 30 day free trial. If you want to use it for a hobby site beyond that, you need to pay US$50+/month.
last time I checked, functions were part of the "minimum $50/month" thing. This doesn't look like a free tier, it's a trial period.
Here’s a Glitch community article about how to use Glitch apps with fastly.. could be a fun parent/child learning project. Glitch is pretty cool..<p><a href="https://support.glitch.com/t/give-your-glitch-site-a-performance-boost-with-fastly-and-use-your-own-domain/67386" rel="nofollow">https://support.glitch.com/t/give-your-glitch-site-a-perform...</a>
