The Problem That Wouldn't Go Away
I've been building with WeWeb for a while now. Mostly client projects that need the flexibility of custom code with the speed of visual development;
But there was always one thing that drove me crazy:
Every time I exported from WeWeb, it would overwrite my config files. Builds would break. I'd spend time manually fixing things. Repeat next week.
Sound familiar?
Why This Happens
WeWeb is great at what it does, but when it exports your project, it doesn't know about your custom Vite configs, your polyfills, or your deployment setup. It just gives you the raw project files.
If you're deploying to Cloudflare Pages (like I was), that means:
β First deployment: works perfectly
β Next export: config files gone, build broken
π Manual fixes every single time
There had to be a better way.
What I Built
I created weweb-cloudflare-ci βan open-source CI/CD template that automates the whole process.
Here's how it works:
Clones your WeWeb project
Automatically reapplies your config files and polyfills
Builds with Vite
Deploys to Cloudflare Pages
Bonus: Preserves your original WeWeb commit messages on the live site
Why Open Source?
I figured if I was having this problem, others probably were too. WeWeb doesn't have an official CI/CD template for Cloudflare Pages, so I wanted to share what worked for me.
It's:
π¦ MIT licensed (free for anyone to use)
π Fully documented (I tried to make setup painless)
π οΈ Production-tested (running on my own projects)
Quick Start
If you want to try it:
Fork the repo β https://github.com/Mel000000/weweb-cloudflare-ci
Add your secrets (Cloudflare tokens, GitHub PATs)
Deploy the Worker with wrangler deploy
Add the Worker URL to your WeWeb export hook
That's it. Next export = automatic deployment.
What's Next?
I'd love feedback from anyone who tries it:
Does it solve your deployment headaches?
Any features you'd like to see?
Something confusing in the setup?
PRs and issues welcome! I'm also happy to help anyone get it running.
