# Storybook
The Storybook for the `gitlab-org/gitlab` project is available on our [GitLab Pages site](https://gitlab-org.gitlab.io/gitlab/storybook).
## Storybook in local development
Storybook dependencies and configuration are located under the `storybook/` directory.
To build and launch Storybook locally, in the root directory of the `gitlab` project:
1. Install Storybook dependencies:
```shell
yarn storybook:install
```
1. Build the Storybook site:
```shell
yarn storybook:start
```
## Adding components to Storybook
Stories can be added for any Vue component in the `gitlab` repository.
To add a story:
1. Create a new `.stories.js` file in the same directory as the Vue component.
The file name should have the same prefix as the Vue component.
```txt
vue_shared/
├─ components/
│ ├─ sidebar
│ │ ├─ todo_button.vue
│ │ ├─ todo_button.stories.js
```
1. Write the story as per the [official Storybook instructions](https://storybook.js.org/docs/vue/writing-stories/introduction/)
Notes:
- Specify the `title` field of the story as the component's file path from the `javascripts/` directory,
e.g. if the component is located at `app/assets/javascripts/vue_shared/components/sidebar/todo_toggle/todo_button.vue`, specify the `title` as
`vue_shared/components/To-do Button`. This will ensure the Storybook navigation maps closely to our internal directory structure.
