TIL: Cloudflare Notifications

I use Cloudflare Pages to build this site, and in particular I use the built-in GitHub integration because the build process is pretty simple (just run pnpm run build and you’re golden). Until recently, I was annoyed that I never got an email when a build failed and there didn’t seem to be a way to enable it from the Pages console.

However! I recently learned about Cloudflare Notifications, which allow you to get email notifications (or, if you pay, a PagerDuty integration) for all kinds of events in your Cloudflare account - including failed Pages builds. So, following the instructions, I went into my account and enabled the Pages -> Project updates -> Build failed notification, and it just worked!
