I am thrilled to announce a new version of React Native Storybook!

React Native Storybook is a specialized version of Storybook that enables you to create stories for React Native components. These stories render on a native emulator and/or a physical mobile device.

Due to this difference, React Native Storybook has lagged behind its web counterpart, but this update closes the gap and makes React Native Storybook compatible with Storybook 6.5.14+!

  • 📝 Support for Component Story Format
  • 🎛️ Support for Controls and Args (including experimental auto-generated controls)
  • 📜 Aligned config with core format (main.js and preview.js files)
  • ⚡ Performance improvements
  • 🎨 On-device UI improvements
