They just announced many improvements to Python workers earlier this month: https://blog.cloudflare.com/python-workers-advancements/
https://github.com/G4brym/django-cf has a template (among other things) to get started
Another option is the containers stuff mentioned in sibling comment but it's not so FaaS.
We ran Django on AWS Lambas years ago. Wasn’t fun and caused headaches, but worked
Should be possible with this, no?
Bunny has very solid edge runtime if you manage to squeeze it into wasm or “magic containers” so it’s just a pod
you can do it on wasmer's workers, their last wasm/python approach is pretty solid (compatibility, performance). it's sad to say, but after 4 years of "beta" Python support on CF workers - it's still ugly. I dunno who was responsible for such a neglect, but even with the last changes - total fiasco
I wish we could host Django apps with the tasks and everything on Cloudflare workers. Also it would be nice to have a DB like SQLite within Cloudflare.
