We’re over a year in since the new Backend system was rolled out, unlocking the extensibility and customisability of Backstage. Whether you’re a Backstage plugin developer or an adopter, tune in to discover the advantages of working within the new framework. For plugin authors, learn how to:
- Extend and provide customisations for your backend plugin with extension points
- Break your plugin’s functionality into modules
- Connect these pieces back together into a fully functional plugin with plugin metadata
Designing your plugin with these features will make it easier for the community to adopt it and configure it to their own needs.
For adopters, discover how the new system drastically reduces the time to install new plugins and customise them with little to no code. With a few examples, we will illustrate how migrating to the new framework can make your backstage instance serve new functionality to your users quickly.
