Our community swelled in the last few years. Storybook now powers UI development for solo devs all the way up to multinational companies like Airbnb, IBM, and GitHub.

I’m thrilled to announce our first ever user conference to bring our global community together. Join us for Storybook Day on March 14, 2023 to celebrate the 7.0 launch. You’ll learn about new workflows and best practices from maintainers and expert users.

Why a user conference?

Thousands of teams use Storybook for development, testing, and documentation. Some teams create design systems with Storybook, while others build entire app UIs in isolation.

The breadth of use cases is a testament to Storybook’s flexibility. But this also makes it tricky for folks to understand which practices are best, much less how to implement them in their own projects.

We’re throwing a p̶a̶r̶t̶y̶ user conference to bring our community together to learn new UI development techniques and connect with other passionate frontend devs. Along the way, we’ll share the latest from the Storybook ecosystem.
