Brunch
Brunch is a fast front-end web application build tool with simple declarative configuration and seamless incremental compilation for rapid development.
Install Brunch
To begin, install Brunch:
$ npm install -g brunch
Create a Brunch project
Brunch maintains a library of community-provided skeletons to offer you a boilerplate for your project. Run Brunch’s recommended es6 skeleton with the brunch new command:
$ brunch new proj -s es6
Before you continue
All of the framework guides assume you already have a fundamental understanding of Git. If you are new to Git, refer to this summarized Git handbook on how to set up Git on your local machine.
If you clone with SSH, you must generate SSH keys on each computer you use to push or pull from GitHub.
Refer to the GitHub documentation and Git documentation for more information.
Create a GitHub repository
Create a new GitHub repository by visiting repo.new. After creating a new repository, go to your newly created project directory to prepare and push your local application to GitHub by running the following commands in your terminal:
$ git init
$ git remote add origin https://github.com/<your-gh-username>/<repository-name>
$ git add .
$ git commit -m "Initial commit"
$ git branch -M main
$ git push -u origin main
Deploy with Cloudflare Pages
To deploy your site to Pages:
- Log in to the Cloudflare dashboard and select your account.

For the complete guide to deploying your first site to Cloudflare Pages, refer to the Get started guide.
After deploying your site, you will receive a unique subdomain for your project on *.pages.dev.
Every time you commit new code to your Brunch site, Cloudflare Pages will automatically rebuild your project and deploy it. You will also get access to preview deployments on new pull requests and be able to preview how changes look to your site before deploying them to production.
