Prompt objective
Establish a component development and documentation environment with Storybook that serves as the single source of truth for the team's design system.
Real use case
The healthtech MedConecta has 8 frontend developers and one designer. Components are built ad-hoc without documentation, and the designer spends 30% of their time reviewing implementations that diverge from Figma. They need a functional Storybook in 3 weeks.

Replace the placeholders with your own context before you run the prompt. That usually improves the first output more than adding more instructions later.
Prompt
Set up a complete Storybook environment for [PROJECT NAME], using React + TypeScript + Tailwind CSS + [RADIX/SHADCN/HEADLESS UI]. **1) Setup and Configuration:** - Storybook 8 with Vite builder (not Webpack) - Essential addons: Controls, Actions, Viewport, A11y, Dark Mode - Tailwind CSS integrated in Storybook (theme tokens) - Global decorators configuration in `preview.ts` - TypeScript strict mode for stories **2) Story Structure by Component:** For each component ([LIST OF 5-8 PRIORITY COMPONENTS]), create: - `Default` story with all props documented via argTypes - Story per variant (size, color, state) - Composition story (component in real context) - Edge case stories (long text, loading, error, empty) - MDX documentation with usage guidelines and do/don't **3) Automated Visual Testing:** - Chromatic or Percy: setup and configuration - Visual snapshot per story (baseline + diff) - GitHub Actions integration (run on PR) - Acceptable difference threshold - Visual change approval workflow **4) Interaction Testing:** - `play` functions to simulate user interactions - Automated accessibility tests (axe in Storybook) - Responsiveness tests (mobile, tablet, desktop) **5) Publishing and Consumption:** - Automatic Storybook deployment (Chromatic or Vercel) - Public URL for designers and PMs - Versioning aligned with releases - Figma integration (Storybook Connect) **6) Team Conventions:** - Story template for new components - Code review checklist (story required) - New component proposal process Include code examples for [COMPONENT 1] and [COMPONENT 2] with complete stories.
