What is storybook?

Storybook is an open-source tool for developing UI components in isolation for React, Vue, Angular, and more. 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.

Other packages similar to storybook

react-styleguidist

React Styleguidist is a component development environment with a hot-reloaded dev server. It's similar to Storybook but focuses more on living style guides, and it uses Markdown for documentation.

docz

Docz leverages MDX to bring Markdown and JSX together into one file, enabling easier documentation writing for your components. It's simpler to set up than Storybook but might not be as feature-rich.

playroom

Playroom allows you to simultaneously design across a variety of themes and screen sizes, powered by JSX and your own component library. It's different from Storybook in that it focuses on layout and design rather than component isolation.
