Module name/project name:

Storybook



Brief description:

The storybook module makes it easier to create a
connection between Drupal and Storybook. It adds some Twig
functionality so you can write Stories in Twig as opposed to
YML or JSON or React



Brief history

How old: Less than a year

Versions available: Alpha4 came out earlier this month



Maintainership

Actively maintained: Yes

Number of open issues: 6

Test coverage: no



Usage stats:

N/A: for development only

Maintainer(s):

Mateu Aguiló Bosch (e0ipso) from Lullabot.

Module features and usage

Twig based stories

Pulls in Sites theme and base css.

So needs some updates to the development.services.yml

Also means it is hard to publish a storybook.

No need for SDC (but works well with it)

Great instructions on the module page

Way easier than previous integrations including
cl_server.

Not as opinionated as previous storybook integrations.
