Documenting your components with Storybook
We set up and feed your Storybook: documented components, variants, visual tests. The bridge between design and development.
How do you document your components with Storybook?
Storybook is the development and documentation environment for UI components. Each component is built and documented in isolation: variants, states, props. It's the foundation of a solid Storybook design system, a shared source of truth between designers and developers, and the starting point for visual regression tests.
Why we use Storybook
Development in isolation
We build each component without booting up the whole application. Faster, more focused, fewer side effects.
Interactive documentation
Each story is a living example with the props, variants and states documented. The docs don't go stale.
Visual tests
Chromatic or Playwright Visual: we capture the screenshots and detect visual regressions automatically.
Addon ecosystem
Actions, controls, a11y, viewport: the Storybook addons cover every testing and documentation need.
What Storybook changes for your team
A well-kept Storybook design system aligns design and development on the same components: less rework, more consistency.
Guaranteed visual consistency
One component per state, per variant: the interfaces stay consistent even as the team grows.
Design/dev collaboration
Designers see the components for real. Developers have a living spec. Fewer misunderstandings.
Visual regressions caught
Automatic visual tests: an unintended style change is caught before it goes to production.
Faster onboarding
A new developer understands the design system by exploring Storybook. No more Word documentation that's never up to date.

How we work with Storybook
Every stack comes with its own ecosystem. We always pick the technologies best suited to your project, based on its needs and its context.
We configure Storybook with the essential addons (controls, a11y, viewport), document each component through stories with its variants and states, then publish the result as a shared reference between design and development.
By writing one story per significant state, using args and controls for the variable props, and adding JSDoc on the components. Storybook then generates interactive documentation that always stays in sync with the code.
With decorators and mocks: we simulate the necessary context in each story to isolate the component.
No. Chromatic is the Storybook team's visual testing solution, but Playwright Visual or Percy are valid alternatives.
Yes. Chromatic hosts the Storybook with a shareable link. You can also deploy it to GitHub Pages or S3.
