Setup Mantine in Storybook

Note that this guide covers only Storybook 10+ integration. If you're using an older version of Storybook, it won't work for you.

Add Storybook to your application

If you already have Storybook in your application, you can skip this step.

Follow the Storybook getting started guide to add Storybook to your application:

bash

npx storybook@latest init

Configure addons

Install @storybook/addon-themes Storybook addon:

Add addons to .storybook/main.ts:

tsx

import type { StorybookConfig } from '@storybook/react-vite';

const config: StorybookConfig = {
  // ... other config properties
  addons: ['@storybook/addon-themes'],
};

export default config;

Theme object

To share the theme object between your application and Storybook, create a src/theme.ts (or any other path in your application) file with your theme override:

tsx

// src/theme.ts
import { createTheme } from '@mantine/core';

export const theme = createTheme({
  fontFamily: 'serif',
  // ... other theme override properties
});

Then you'll be able to use the same theme both in your application and Storybook:

tsx

// In your application

import { MantineProvider } from '@mantine/core';
import { theme } from './theme';

function App() {
  return <MantineProvider theme={theme}></MantineProvider>;
}

Storybook preview

If the .storybook/preview.tsx file doesn't exist, create it and add the following content:

tsx

// Import styles of packages that you've installed.
// All packages except `@mantine/hooks` require styles imports
import '@mantine/core/styles.css';

import { ColorSchemeScript, MantineProvider } from '@mantine/core';
import { theme } from '../theme';

export const parameters = {
  layout: 'fullscreen',
  options: {
    showPanel: false,
    storySort: (a, b) => a.title.localeCompare(b.title, undefined, { numeric: true }),
  },
  backgrounds: { disable: true },
};

export const globalTypes = {
  theme: {
    name: 'Theme',
    description: 'Mantine color scheme',
    defaultValue: 'light',
    toolbar: {
      icon: 'mirror',
      items: [
        { value: 'light', title: 'Light' },
        { value: 'dark', title: 'Dark' },
      ],
    },
  },
};

export const decorators = [
  (renderStory: any, context: any) => {
    const scheme = (context.globals.theme || 'light') as 'light' | 'dark';
    return (
      <MantineProvider theme={theme} forceColorScheme={scheme}>
        <ColorSchemeScript />
        {renderStory()}
      </MantineProvider>
    );
  },
];

All set! Start Storybook:

bash

npm run storybook
