Storybook is an open source tool for developing UI components in isolation for React, Vue, and Angular. It makes building stunning UIs organized and efficient.
Storybook provides a sandbox to build UI components in isolation so you can develop hard-to-reach states and edge cases.
Build components in isolation
Create components without needing to stand up screens, fuss with data, or build business logic.
Mock hard to reach use cases
Render components in key states that are tricky to reproduce in an app.
Document use cases as stories
Save use cases as stories inplain JavaScriptto revisit during development, testing, and QA.
Supercharge your workflow with addons
Use addons to build UI faster, document a component library, and streamline your workflow.
