Browser Rendering 503 after onboarding tutorial

I just did the Deploy a Browser Rendering Worker guide (https://developers.cloudflare.com/browser-rendering/get-started/screenshots/), but I'm getting a 503 Service Temporarily Unavaiable error when I try to use it? Does anyone know why or how I can fix it?? Also of note, the npx wrangler dev --remote command doesn't appear to work when your main file is index.ts or worker.ts, it only works with the .js extension

By following this guide, you will create a Worker that uses the Browser Rendering API to take screenshots from web pages. This is a common use case for browser automation.

I'm also seeing a similar message in one of my workers - "Unable to create new browser: code: 503: message: Service Temporarily Unavailable".

okay - comforting to see it's happening to others. Maybe this is a problem on Cloudflare's end

@Lambs the 503 should be fixed now was temporary bug for the second item about npx wrangler dev --remote i'd shared with the team to try to reproduce but were not able to. do you have an example (repo on github or something)?

Thanks Kathy - perhaps the issue was related to the temporary 503. We're no longer using the Browser rendering, so I haven't encountered the issue in a while
