I used hono to implement worker.

Hono - Ultrafast web framework for the Edges

Hono is an ultrafast web framework for the edge and it's amazing. It's simple as express and the DX is mind-blowing. And now you can also serve JSX with it 🤯. Anyone in the industry for long enough knows that a setup like this can be quite tedious to manage and maintain. I might sound biased for Hono, and that's true, I love it ❤️.

Please could a fellow HNer who has experience using this explain in simple terms what Hono on a Cloudflare Worker enables that one cannot already do with a vanilla worker?

The docs[0] are not instructive on this point.

Hono, a powerful framework, is our secret sauce for crafting high-performance APIs. With its intuitive syntax and seamless integration with Next.js, Hono simplifies the process of optimizing API performance.

I agree that “fast, lightweight, web standards” isn’t much of a description but not too far down https://github.com/honojs/hono I did this:

> Hono … is a small, simple, and ultrafast web framework for the Edges. It works on any JavaScript runtime: Cloudflare Workers, Fastly Compute, Deno, Bun, Vercel, AWS Lambda, Lambda@Edge, and Node.js.

Hono offers good DX and a blazingly fast library to help you build your backend with native RPC embedded in its code. It has Zod support and it's written with TypeScript with very readable types so you can understand what's happening. It also supports Bun and a bunch of runtimes so you can run it everywhere. Check the documentation! It's also very helpful.

Initialize your hono project using bun:

NOTE: Never store sensitive information about a client in the payload as the JWT is just encoded and not encrypted. You can paste the JWT I gave as an example above in this cool site which basically allows you to see in decoded. JSON Web Tokens - jwt.io

Although they did not make it into production, I experimented with the RabbitMQ message broker, Python (Django, Flask), Kubernetes + minikube, JWT, and NGINX. This was a hobby project, but I intended to learn about microservices along the way.

JSON Web Token (JWT) creation to extend user authentication to server-side functions

The (probably) most famous web resource about JWT - https://jwt.io - provides such a definition of JSON Web Tokens:

If you want to play with JWT and put these concepts into practice, you can use jwt.ioDebugger to decode, verify, and generate JWTs.

In this context, JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) play a crucial role.

Json Web Token (JWT): Even though it is more like an industry standard, we will use JWTs for stateless authentication in this article. If you want to learn more, you can refer to the official documentation.
