To deploy a Prisma-backed application to Cloudflare Pages, you'll need to adapt your Prisma schema and client to work with the serverless environment. Cloudflare Pages uses serverless functions (Workers AI) which have limitations on file system access and database connections. You'll likely need to use a serverless-compatible database like PlanetScale, Neon, or a similar solution. Configure your Prisma schema to connect to this database. Then, deploy your frontend and serverless functions (API routes) to Cloudflare Pages, ensuring your environment variables for the database connection are set correctly in the Cloudflare Pages dashboard.
