Efficiency for teams of any size.
Backstage is one of the best tools on the market for developing Internal Developer Platforms (IDPs). However, it requires a high technical effort to make it a viable IDP.
With Veecode, we use the open-source version of Backstage to build an IDP that is easy to understand and maintenance-free.
