First, install de dependencies and run the development server:
npm installnpm run devOpen http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.
Storybook is an open-source tool that allows developers to build UI components and pages in isolation. It provides a development environment where components can be tested, documented, and shared without needing to run the entire application.
Storybook is particularly useful for:
Developing components in isolation.
Testing UI edge cases.
Sharing a living style guide with designers and stakeholders.
Writing documentation alongside components.
With Storybook, you can build UI components independently of business logic and backend, which enhances development efficiency and consistency.
To run Storybook in the project, follow these steps:
Running Storybook
To start Storybook locally, run the following command:
npm run storybookThis will start a local development server at http://localhost:6006 where you can view and test your components.
To add a new component story to Storybook, follow these steps:
Navigate to the components directory where the component is located.
Create a new file with the .stories.tsx extension next to your component file.
Write your story using the following example structure:
Assume you have a component named Button.tsx in the components directory.
import React from 'react';type ButtonProps = {
label: string;onClick: () => void;
};export const Button: React.FC<ButtonProps> = ({ label, onClick }) => {
return (
<button onClick={onClick} className="px-4 py-2 bg-blue-500 text-white rounded">
{label}
</button>
);
};import type { Meta, StoryObj } from '@storybook/react';
import { Button } from './Button';
const meta: Meta<typeof Button> = {
title: 'Shared/Button',
component: Button,
tags: ['autodocs'],
argTypes: {
onClick: { action: 'clicked' },
},
};export default meta;type Story = StoryObj<typeof Button>;export const Primary: Story = {
args: {
label: 'Primary Button',
},
};export const Secondary: Story = {
args: {
label: 'Secondary Button',
},
};After creating the story, start Storybook using:
npm run storybookYou should see the Button component listed in the Storybook UI under Components.
If you want to apply one of this typographies, use the className text-
For example: h2 is text-h2 or button2 is text-button2
To preview the typography styles in Storybook, run the following command:
npm run storybook
Navigate to the Typography section to see all available text styles or visit the following link directly:
