Hello Product Hunt community! I’m thrilled to announce that we're opening up early access to Netlify Edge Handlers. This is a major new capability from Netlify and a step change in what developers can do with modern Jamstack web architecture. It makes Jamstack a viable approach for even the most dynamic and complex web apps and websites by executing your custom code at the network edge, local to your web visitors. Now can tailor onsite promotions, localize language and content, run A/B tests, customize authentication, aggregate APIs, and more—without a trip back to an origin server or maintaining duplicate web properties. Best of all, it’s the first solution of it’s kind to combine edge compute with a Git-based workflow. Your web app and edge logic live side-by-side in the same Git repo and take full advantage of Netlify platform features such as build automation, atomic deploys to Netlify’s multi-cloud edge network, site previews, and instant rollbacks With Edge Handlers, it just takes a few lines of Javascript to intercept incoming HTTP requests, manipulate incoming requests to fetch different resources, or even transform HTTP responses. That gives frontend developers more power to tailor the network infrastructure to the needs of the web app and it streamlines Continuous Delivery between developers and DevOps/SREs Learn more https://www.netlify.com/products...
