Backstage Weekly 50 - New Backstage Users Unconference, active page in TechDocs
By Jorge Lainfiesta • August 1st, 2022Hi, y’all! In this week’s newsletter, we announce the new Backstage Users Unconference, highlight a UX improvement, and take a sneak peek into the new Scaffolder Wizard.
New Backstage Unconference: September 7th!
We had a blast at the last Unconference, with 95 attendees split into smaller groups across eight topics, chosen by the community. We’re co-hosting a new, fresh, Unconference with Frontside— right after everyone’s back from summer.
Sign up for the best Unconference yet, featuring prizes like KubeCon NA 2022 Virtual passes and swag!

Thanks to Crevil, you’ll now see an active state for the page you’re reading as well as its parents. Expect this UX improvement in the next Backstage release!
Spoiler: a new Scaffolder Wizard
benjdlambert, who we met recently in Stockholm, merged the initial work on a new Scaffolder Wizard. The PR in question contained the early stages of the new Wizard. We’re excited to see what’s coming!
Before saying good bye, I want to welcome ImmobiliareLabs to the community as the most recent adopter!
Talk to you next week!
