Documentation

Writing Changesets for Components

When creating changesets for component-specific changes, add component metadata to help maintain documentation:

---
'@backstage/ui': patch
---

Fixed size prop handling for Avatar component.

Affected components: Avatar

Guidelines:

  • Component names: Use PascalCase as they appear in imports (Avatar, ButtonIcon, SearchField)
  • Multiple components: Affected components: Button, ButtonLink, ButtonIcon
  • General changes: Omit the metadata line (build changes, package-level updates)
  • Placement: The line can appear anywhere in the description

The changelog sync tool will parse these tags and update the documentation site automatically.
