> Monitor Storybook performance and debug component issues.

## Performance monitoring

Use browser DevTools to monitor Storybook's performance. Identify slow stories and optimize component rendering.

## Debugging component props

Use the Controls panel and React DevTools to inspect props and state. This helps identify why a component isn't rendering as expected.

## Common issues

Common problems include missing dependencies, incorrect imports, and timezone mismatches. Use the Storybook logs to diagnose issues.

## Component testing strategies

Combine Storybook with unit tests, integration tests, and E2E tests for comprehensive coverage. Each layer serves a specific testing purpose.

## Story organization at scale

As your Storybook grows, organize stories in a hierarchical folder structure that mirrors your component organization.
