We're still building https://shoehorn.dev/: an Intelligent Developer Platform (think Backstage, but opinionated and simple). With Shoehorn, you just run the thing.

"The irony of Backstage is that it was created to prevent teams from having to reinvent the wheel every time, building and maintaining their own developer portal. But that's exactly what everyone does with Backstage."

We wanted something you configure,deploy,update. thats it.

service catalog, GitHub crawler, K8s entity discovery via k8s-push-agent, Forge + molds (scaffolding/workflows, like Backstage templates), governance, scorecards, cloud provider resources, license management, event based notifications, team-context aware, API keys with scope auth alongside session RBAC. CLI and Terraform provider too.

We're aiming to release Beta end of April.
