Hey Hrithwik, awesome article! I always thought have a solution to map a blog subdomain to a subdirectory would be a pain but it seems very doable after reading this. Thanks!

Glad to hear that Marco, A little Heads up , it might still be a pain if the assets in your main content domain and the proxied domain are using the same directories.

Otherwise you won't face a lot of problems

This article is super simple to help people get started with Workers Hrithwik.

Discovered Cloudflare workers from Fruition initially.

There is even a SAAS called Cloakist which does Rewrites to any custom domain and use AWS Lambdas.
