When AI Fails to Smash the Bug 🪲

This is a submission for DEV's Summer Bug Smash: Clear the Lineup powered by Sentry.

Project Overview

My most recent project is a local small e-commerce shop that allows guest artists and myself to sell handcrafted items to amazing customers. I wanted a shop completely different from Shopify, easy to maintain, and a way to automate drop shipping for artists.

Bug Fix or Performance Improvement

My issue started when I implemented Cloudflare. At least that was what I thought. The site locally seemed to work perfectly. The shop was performing well, working correctly against Neon Database for the product pulls, and styles were showing correctly. So I thought I could share this with a friend, get some advice.
