Description

🔖 Feature description

Please update the harness plugin to be compatible with the new Backstage Frontend System.

🎤 Context

Backstage released a new frontend system for plugins recently.
When I installed the plugin I got this message:

This package's metadata does not indicate feature type information (in exports.backstage nor backstage.features) and may not be compatible with Portal.

Peer dependency is available in Portal at version 18.3.1, which does not satisfy the peer dependency version range. This may result in errors or inconsistent behavior. Please report this issue to the package owner.

react@"^16.13.1 || ^17.0.0"

Research direction

No file, test, or entry point is named in the issue. Start with the linked Backstage frontend-system migration guide, then locate the harness plugin's frontend integration and package metadata; done means it is compatible with the new system and no longer reports the shown React peer-dependency or feature-type warnings.
