How to Integrate Storybook with Drupal SDC for Scalable UI Development
A technical guide from Innoraft outlines how to integrate Storybook with Drupal’s Single Directory Components (SDC) to modernize UI development workflows. Anuska Mallick explains how SDC structures Drupal theming into modular, reusable units, while Storybook offers a dedicated environment for isolated component development, testing, and documentation.
The article presents a step-by-step walkthrough using the Drupal Storybook module, addressing the core challenge of bridging PHP-based Twig templates with Storybook’s JavaScript runtime. Tools like twig.js
and twig-drupal-filters
are key, alongside configuration steps involving CORS settings and cache disabling.
Though dense, the guide is rich in actionable detail. It effectively targets frontend developers seeking scalable, testable, and design-consistent UI patterns in Drupal. This is not an introductory tutorial, but a valuable blueprint for teams committed to component-driven architecture.
