Description

Wrap up the DO and example Worker code into some library helpers. Create some specific Cloudflare integration examples in the monorepo.

Ideally also benchmark the CDN -> Worker/DO sync to measure (high) bandwidth and (low) latency.

Research direction
The issue requests wrapping existing DO and Worker code into library helpers and creating Cloudflare integration examples. Start by examining the current Worker examples in the repository, likely under a `workers` or `cloudflare` directory. Identify the Durable Object implementation and extract reusable patterns. Then create a new library package with helper functions. For demos, consider common scenarios like real time sync using WebSockets. Benchmarking should measure bandwidth and latency between CDN and Worker/DO, so research existing benchmarking tools for Cloudflare Workers.
