🚨 Contribfest: Backstage Onboarding: Your Journey to Community Contribution!
Thursday November 14, 2024 11:00am - 12:30pm MST
Salt Palace | Level 3 | 355 A
Join us for an in-depth session on Backstage, an incubating project within the CNCF ecosystem. Backstage is a framework for building Internal Developer Portals, enhanced with a variety of plugins. In this session we will guide you through your local environment, ensuring you have all the prerequisite tools like NodeJS and TypeScript. We will then walk through the Contributing Guide to help you familiarize yourself with the project and the contribution process. From there, we will dive into a curated list of GitHub Issues perfect for first-time contributors. You will have the opportunity to receive help from Backstage experts while we tackle these issues. Embark on your journey of contributing to Backstage and its vibrant community of plugins!
