Current Challenges in Edge Configuration:

• Time-consuming deployments - Configuration changes require code deployments, causing unnecessary downtime
• Error-prone manual updates - Managing settings across dev/staging/prod environments introduces human error
• Steep learning curve - Cloudflare API complexity requires significant developer time to master
• Limited audit capabilities - Tracking who changed what configuration when is challenging
• Workflow inefficiencies - Developers context-switch between documentation and tools

These pain points lead to slower release cycles, configuration drift between environments, and increased operational burden on technical teams. The business impact includes delayed feature launches, inconsistent user experiences, and inefficient use of developer resources.
