I was pretty excited to add storybook to my project, but after setting up my basic components like buttons and moving on to higher level components that render slices of state using selectors … I have regrets.
Is it me or is it really hard to ‘storybook-i-fy’ react components using selectors? I found this tutorial on the Storybook site and it looks like the preferred pattern is to duplicate your store in your storybook file? That can’t be right, can it?
Someone talk me out of taking Storybook out back and uninstalling it from my repo.
Your services, that your components, use need to be mockable. Then you can reuse your components in storyboard with mocked interactions and in your productive app with actual service interactions. That way you can also write tests for them.
