Show HN: Localflare – Local Dev Dashboard for Cloudflare Workers(D1, KV, R2 etc.

I built Localflare because developing with Cloudflare Workers locally felt blind – you couldn't see what was actually in your D1 databases, KV stores, or R2 buckets during development.

Just run `npx localflare` in any Workers project and get a full dashboard with:

- D1 Studio: SQL editor, inline editing, filtering, dummy data generation (Faker.js) - KV Browser: View/edit key-value pairs - R2 File Manager: Upload/download objects - Queue Inspector: Send test messages - Durable Objects: View instance state

The interesting technical bit: it uses a sidecar architecture that injects an API worker alongside yours in the same wrangler process. Both workers share the exact same binding instances – no mocks, real data. Your code stays completely untouched.

Zero config. Works with any framework (Hono, Remix, Astro, OpenNext, Nuxt). Just needs wrangler.toml.

Would love feedback, especially on what bindings or features you'd want next.
