Getting Started with Backstage in 2023

on YouTube ↗22m

" summary

Backstage adoption hits 1k+ adopters, 4M developers and Spotify describes two new tools: an Onboarding CLI and Backstage Deploy. Demonstration shows Quick Start spawning a demo instance on AWS Lightsail with one command, a wizard that wires GitHub OAuth, ingests org users, exposes a public URL, and edits runtime config in a backing database (no redeploy). Backstage Deploy currently targets AWS and cannot combine with Quick Start yet; Quick Start is aimed at new installs.
