Lesson 17 / 25

Deployment and Distribution

Deploy Storybook and distribute component libraries.

Deployment options

Deploy Storybook to Vercel, Netlify, Chromatic, or any static hosting service. Each option provides different features like auto-preview links and integration with your CI/CD.

Build and deploy script

A typical deployment workflow involves building Storybook and pushing it to your hosting service.

#!/bin/bash
# Build Storybook for production
npm run build-storybook

# Deploy to your hosting provider
vercel storybook-static --prod

Component library distribution

Publish your components as an npm package while using Storybook as a showcase and documentation site.

Preview deployments

Use preview URLs for pull request review. Services like Vercel and Netlify provide automatic preview URLs for each PR.
