About the plugin
The Home plugin introduces a system for composing a homepage for Backstage, a place to surface relevant information and provide convenient shortcuts for common tasks. It's designed with customization in mind, allowing contributors to add helpful components to the home page.
Enhance discoverability
Make resources easier to find and reduce time wasted looking for commonly searched items with user shortcuts, quick links, and a most visited pages directory.
Customize your experience
The homepage plugin comes with several built-in components. You can choose to utilize the default template, customize it with components that are already available, or add entirely net-new components to build out a custom homepage for your teams.
Home features
Recently and frequently visited pages
Surface relevant and helpful links to your Backstage users, allowing them to navigate through frequent tasks quickly.
Built-in widgets
Add various existing components, like an integrated world clock, a random joke, or starred entities, to construct a homepage that’s both useful and delightful for your team.
Customizable interface
For component developers who want to customize building blocks for the homepage, there’s a convenient interface for bundling different pieces and exporting them with both error boundary and lazy loading handled under the surface.
