Repository migration notice (June/July 2021)

In order to make testing and deployment of our plugins easier we are migrating all Roadie plugins to a monorepo at https://github.com/RoadieHQ/backstage-roadie-plugins.

The plugins will still be published to the same place on NPM and will have the same package names so nothing should change for consumers of these plugins.
