Storybook Addon Notes

Storybook Addon Notes allows you to write notes (text or HTML) for your stories in Storybook.

Framework Support

Getting Started

NOTE: Documentation on master branch is for alpha version, stable release is on release/3.4

yarn add -D @storybook/addon-notes

Then create a file called addons.js in your storybook config.

Add following content to it:

import '@storybook/addon-notes/register';

Then add the withNotes decorator to all stories in your config.js:

// Import from @storybook/X where X is your framework
import { configure, addDecorator } from '@storybook/react';
import { withNotes } from '@storybook/addon-notes';

addDecorator(withNotes);

You can use the notes parameter to add a note to each story:

import { storiesOf } from '@storybook/react';

import Component from './Component';

storiesOf('Component', module)
  .add('with some emoji', () => <Component />, { notes: 'A very simple component' });

Using Markdown

To use markdown in your notes, either through import or inline, simply put it in the markdown property of your note.

import { storiesOf } from '@storybook/react';
import Component from './Component';
import someMarkdownText from './someMarkdownText.md';

storiesOf('Component', module).add(
  'With Markdown',
  () => <Component />,
  { notes: { markdown: someMarkdownText } }
);
