This repository is a collection of software and documentation templates for the Backstage community. The templates are organized into two folders: scaffolder-templates for Backstage Software Templates and documentation-templates for general documentation templates. Contributions are welcome for new and existing templates!

Backstage Software Templates are used to create new software components through Backstage. These templates are intended as a starting point to build on for different use cases. You may also use them as provided, but we recommend pointing your Backstage app to a forked copy because the templates aren't versioned at this time, and as such breaking changes can happen without warning.

The documentation templates provide recommended structure and content for different types of documentation, for example system architecture documents or runbooks.
