Build Your Own Developer Platform in 90 Minutes

In a workshop presented by Udi Hofesh and Engin Diri at DevOpsDays Tel Aviv 2024, participants learned how to construct a developer platform within 90 minutes using Backstage, ArgoCD, and Kubernetes. The session outlined the importance of developer platforms in modern software development, emphasizing their role in simplifying tool management and enhancing team collaboration. Attendees were guided through deploying a Kubernetes cluster on DigitalOcean, setting up ArgoCD for continuous integration and delivery, and using Backstage to provide a unified interface for developers. The workshop also highlighted the significance of treating the platform as a product, iterating based on user feedback to continuously improve the developer experience. By the conclusion, participants not only learned to deploy applications using this setup but also how to dismantle the infrastructure to avoid unnecessary expenses.
