State of Storybook 7
summary
Storybook 7 claims a major stability and performance upgrade: a refreshed UI, first-class Vite support and new framework integrations like Next.js, plus auto docs via MDX2. Demo shows a full Storybook of 40+ pages and components rebuilding in ~5 seconds to build 40+ pages. It adds play function and interaction tests with a test-runner (Playwright) that runs cross‑browser in parallel, yields clickable debug links, code-coverage reports, mocked network states, and an ecosystem CI that fixes regressions within 24 hours.
