Showcase Your Storybook Skills with a GitHub README Badge

Use this markdown in your README:

![Storybook](https://img.shields.io/badge/Storybook-FF4785?style=for-the-badge&logo=storybook&logoColor=white)

The #FF4785 is Storybook's official pink — a distinctive color that immediately signals component-driven development and design system work. The storybook logo identifier renders Storybook's flame logo from Simple Icons. This pink badge stands out clearly in a frontend badge row dominated by blues and greens.

Storybook proficiency varies significantly — from basic story writing to advanced testing and design system publication. Be specific about your usage depth:

• Basic: Writing stories for component variants, using Controls addon for interactive props
• Intermediate: Actions for event testing, Viewport for responsive stories, documentation pages with MDX
• Advanced: Visual regression testing with Chromatic, accessibility testing with a11y addon, interaction testing with play functions
• Architecture: Publishing a Storybook as a live design system reference for designers and engineers

If you have deployed a public Storybook — even for a personal project — link to it from your profile or pinned repositories. A live Storybook demonstrates component documentation skills more effectively than any badge.

Storybook is framework-agnostic but appears most often in these contexts:

• React design system: Storybook + React + TypeScript + Tailwind CSS or Material UI
• Enterprise Angular: Storybook + Angular + TypeScript + Material Design
• Vue component library: Storybook + Vue.js + TypeScript + Vite
• Testing stack: Storybook + Chromatic + Playwright + Jest

Chromatic (the visual testing SaaS built by the Storybook team) is worth mentioning alongside Storybook if you use it. Chromatic + Storybook for visual regression testing is a complete design system quality pipeline that demonstrates professional frontend engineering practices beyond basic component development.

Storybook stories are TypeScript or JavaScript files, so they contribute to your primary language stats. Story files typically follow the Component.stories.tsx naming convention, which GitHub counts as TypeScript or JavaScript depending on the extension.

For pinned repositories, a component library with Storybook is one of the most compelling frontend showcases. A repository with a comprehensive set of documented components, live Storybook deployment, and visual testing pipeline tells a complete story about your frontend engineering standards. Add a Storybook badge link in the README pointing to the live deployment to make the showcase immediately interactive.
