#Do I still need to build my app before running storybook?

I want to test-drive the beta in our react-ts project. One of my assumptions was, that I wouldn’t need to build my app anymore before starting storybook. But when I looked into the „Getting started“ docs for 7.0 beta it says

Depending on your framework, first, build your app and then check that everything worked…

Vite should be able to serve the components in an unbundled way, so I was wondering why this was still a requirement.

Thanks for this awesome tool and the continued development! We might use storybook even more with the latest features 🙂

Install Storybook

Storybook is a frontend workshop for building UI components and pages in isolation. Thousands of teams use it for UI development, testing, and documentation. It’s open source and free.

You should not need to build your app, no.

Maybe some other frameworks require that, but React does not.
