Built to deploy secure code fast, its highly customizable supply chains and built-in developer portal help you move faster and deploy better. Read more at https://via.vmware.com/tap Backstage is awesome. It lets you create a single portal that co-locates all your software engineering tools, resources, and documentation into one easy-to-use user interface. At VMware, we love Backstage. That's why we've signed up as commercial partners for the project, contributed code, and distributed out-of-the-box experiences based on Backstage in our flagship products, such as the VMware Tanzu Application Platform. In the Tanzu Application Platform GUI, we surface all kinds of useful information straight to developers, operators, and security teams' browsers, including current security posture, CI/CD and secure software supply chain status, Kubernetes workload monitoring, software API definitions, technical documentation, quickstart application templates, and more. Basically, everything your teams need outside their repo, IDE, and command line. In this demo recorded recently in collaboration with @cncv, @BenWilcock will demonstrate Backstage in the Tanzu Application Platform GUI and talk about all the little extras we're adding to help you stay productive while you work.
