Thanks for running through this! I got really excited the day I saw the announcements. I don't think I yelled like you, but I did the equivalent — sending the links to a half a dozen people and a few Slack / Discord channels.
I saw "Iceberg REST" + "R2" + "FREE EGRESS" and had an immediate use case in mind.
Could someone please clarify why we need to run npm create cloudflare in order to create an R2 bucket? According to the documentation, this command creates and deploys a new application to Cloudflare. What kind of application is being created in this context?
Their wrangler CLI can be installed from npm (similar to how the AWS CLI can be installed from PyPI). It's just a nice interface for working with Cloudflare's APIs. There are other options available (Terraform, etc).

Very cool. I know it’s in beta - did you run into any specific trouble or limitations?
