Backstage and Kratix both believe that the most powerful platforms must be built by each organisation. While a platform needs to be custom built, both tools also encourage building on top of community provided support where possible. Both tools provide a framework for platform engineers that encourages user experience front and center.

Backstage is a framework that enables GUIs to be declaratively created with the aim of unifying infrastructure tooling, services, and documentation to produce a great developer experience. Backstage is un-opinionated and decoupled from how you drive your platform infrastructure.

Kratix enables platform teams to declare platform APIs that orchestrates workloads across your infrastructure. Kratix does not come with a packaged GUI.
