Developer Week 2025 wrap-up

As we conclude Developer Week 2025, we’re proud to reflect upon the capabilities we’ve added to our developer platform. It’s so rewarding to deliver products, features and tools that help developers build smarter and ship faster, and even more so hearing your responses throughout the week! Our VP of Product, Rita Kozlov, kicked off Developer Week 2025 discussing the ever-evolving landscape of development, particularly in the age of AI. AI is no longer just a buzzword or a trope for a science-fiction future — in the realm of modern development, it’s a core tenet (and utility) of how we build, innovate, and solve problems. It’s influencing how and how frequently we ship code, as well as enabling anyone to write it. ...

Optimizing Our E2E Pipeline

In the world of DevOps and Developer Experience (DevXP), speed and efficiency can make a big difference on an engineer’s day-to-day tasks. Today, we’ll dive into how Slack’s DevXP team took some existing tools and used them to optimize an end-to-end (E2E) testing pipeline. This lowered build times and reduced redundant processes, saving both time and resources for engineers at Slack. The Problem: Unnecessary Frontend Builds For one of our largest code repositories (a monolithic repository, or monorepo), Slack has a CI/CD pipeline that runs E2E tests before merging code into the main branch. This is critical for ensuring that changes are validated across the entire stack for the Slack application: frontend, backend, database, and the handful of services in between. However, we noticed a bottleneck: building the frontend code was taking longer than expected and occurred too frequently, even when there were no frontend-related changes. Here’s the breakdown: ...

A global virtual private cloud for building secure cross-cloud apps on Cloudflare Workers

Today, we’re sharing a preview of a new feature that makes it easier to build cross-cloud apps: Workers VPC. Workers VPC is our take on the traditional virtual private cloud (VPC), modernized for a network and compute that isn’t tied to a single cloud region. And we’re complementing it with Workers VPC Private Links to make building across clouds easier. Together, they introduce two new capabilities to Workers: A way to group your apps’ resources on Cloudflare into isolated environments, where only resources within a Workers VPC can access one another, allowing you to secure and segment app-to-app traffic (a “Workers VPC”). ...
