Learn how Cloudflare’s Development Mode temporarily bypasses caching to facilitate testing of changes to production content.
Overview
Development Mode temporarily suspends Cloudflare's edge caching, minification, polish, and railgun features for 3 hours unless disabled beforehand. Development Mode allows customers to immediately observe changes to their cacheable content (like images, CSS, or JavaScript).
To enable Development Mode:
- Log in to your Cloudflare account.
- Select your domain.
- Select the Caching app.
Toggle Development Mode to On.
