Ladle
Component workshop that runs React component stories in a Vite dev server and builds them into a static app.
Ladle is a workshop for React components. It shows each story file in a browser through a development server, and its build command produces a static production app that can be deployed. It installs from npm as @ladle/react and expects react and react-dom to be installed alongside it.
The docs describe Ladle as a drop-in alternative to Storybook. Its releases are tagged on the GitHub repository tajo/ladle.
Worth knowing
Ladle supports only React. Stories for other component frameworks are outside what the project covers.
