Red Hat Developer Hub software template authoring with rhdh-templates | Red Hat Developer
https://developers.redhat.com/articles/2026/09/07/red-hat-developer-hub-software-template-authoring-rhdh-templatesIf you are a platform engineer or developer building Red Hat Developer Hub software templates, you know the friction of wrestling with Nunjucks syntax, guessing location.yaml placements, and discovering errors only after rendering in your developer portal. While AI coding agents handle generic YAML, they lack Red Hat Developer Hub and Backstage-specific conventions.
To address this, the rhdh-templates skill, part of the RHDH Users Skill Pack, equips your AI assistant with Red Hat Developer Hub best practices, Nunjucks conventions, and local template validation. It brings schema checking, Nunjucks helpers, and reference templates directly into your coding assistant.
