Craft Across: Storybook Integration for Design Systems

Oct 30, 4:00 – 5:00 PM (UTC)

About this event

Join us for a LIVE deep-dive session focused on getting the most out of Storybook in design systems—from favorite add-ons and configurations to processes and workflows that engineers use to integrate Storybook with their design systems.

Unlike our Inspect & Reflect series where we explore how design systems show up inside products, this Craft Across session zooms in on Storybook as one of the key pillars for quickly developing components and serving as a playground. We'll explore advanced techniques, integrations, and workflows that experienced teams use to maximize Storybook's potential.

While Storybook excels at component development and documentation, we'll also discuss Infa's new add-on that helps you show the usage of your design system components and capture deviations or references in one place.

What We'll Explore

  1. Storybook Configurations and Favorite Add-ons
    Explore essential add-ons and configuration strategies that experienced teams use to maximize Storybook's effectiveness for design systems.

  2. Engineer Workflows and Processes
    Dive into how engineers integrate Storybook into their design system development processes and workflows.

  3. Cross-Team Collaboration Strategies
    Learn how designers and product managers can contribute to Storybook and participate in component development workflows.

  4. Integration and Documentation Approaches
    Explore how to connect Storybook with broader design system documentation and maintain consistency across platforms.

  5. Usage Tracking with Infa Add-on
    Discover how Infa's new add-on helps show component usage and capture deviations or references in one place.
