<p>Miniflare v5 prepares Cloudflare local development tooling for the upcoming <code>cf</code> CLI.</p> <p>Miniflare powers local Workers development behind <code>wrangler dev</code>, the Cloudflare Vite plugin, and <code>@cloudflare/vitest-plugin</code>. Most projects should use those tools instead of depending on Miniflare directly, and Miniflare v5 will not require any action.</p> <p>The most significant change is a new configuration shape which aligns Miniflare with <code>cloudflare.config.ts</code>, the programmatic Cloudflare configuration format now available for testing.</p> <p>Other breaking changes include:</p> <ul> <li>Removed deprecated APIs and options, such as legacy alpha D1 bindings.</li> <li>Removed now-unused, internal APIs like <code>wrappedBindings</code></li> <li>Removed Miniflare's built-in module discovery; higher-level tools like Wrangler and the Vite plugin should be providing the module graph.</li> <li>Moved local-only /cdn-cgi routes under /cdn-cgi/local.</li> <li>Replaced per-resource persistence options with shared persistence root options.</li> </ul> <p>For a more comprehensive list, refer to <a href="https://github.com/cloudflare/workers-sdk/blob/main/packages/miniflare/CHANGELOG.md#5202607300-alpha" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Miniflare's changelog<span class="external-link"> ↗︎</span></a></p> <p>This work sets up a cleaner foundation for the next generation of local development tooling, including the new <code>cf</code> CLI.</p>
