The platform lets developers build apps that take advantage of the Cloudflare ecosystem, place them in the Cloudflare Apps store and provide an easy way to add new functionality such as a map or a form to web pages without any coding.
The new development platform was made possible after Cloudflare acquired a small company called Eager last December. Today’s announcement is the culmination of that purchase, Prince explained.
One example offers the ability to insert a Google map into a live web page without any coding. Using Eager technology, it’s a simple matter of clicking the Google Map tool in the Cloudflare Apps store, configuring the map by making selections from some drop-downs and dragging it into place. It may not sound like much, but it puts the ability to add a map to a web page within reach of any user without the assistance of an expert coder, and that can facilitate much faster changes to web pages.
