Cloudflare just dropped EmDash, their AI-native, open-source WordPress alternative, and you might have missed the most important part. It's not the Astro-powered theming. It's not the AI-native CMS features. It's Dynamic Workers, the isolated runtime that completely rethinks how plugins work. Instead of giving plugins access to your entire site (database, theme, media), EmDash runs each plugin in a sandboxed V8 isolate with only the permissions you explicitly grant. And the implications for AI-generated code are massive.
