Learn how you can use D1 within your existing application and architecture.

## Featured Demos

* [Starter code for D1 Sessions API](https://github.com/cloudflare/templates/tree/main/d1-starter-sessions-api-template): An introduction to D1 Sessions API. This demo simulates purchase orders administration.

  [![Deploy to Cloudflare](https://deploy.workers.cloudflare.com/button)](https://deploy.workers.cloudflare.com/?url=https://github.com/cloudflare/templates/tree/main/d1-starter-sessions-api-template)

Tip: Place your database further away for the read replication demo

To simulate how read replication can improve a worst case latency scenario, select your primary database location to be in a farther away region (one of the deployment steps).

You can find this in the **Database location hint** dropdown.
