This is the repository for the LinkedIn Learning course Building Scalable React UI Component Libraries with Storybook. The full course is available from LinkedIn Learning.

Course Description

In this course, Ifeoma Nwosu, a front-end software engineer, guides you through the principles of building scalable, reusable UI component libraries with React and Storybook.

Learn how to design and implement components that are efficient, consistent, and easy to maintain. Along the way, discover how React and Storybook work together to help you document and visually test your components with confidence.

Instructions

This repository has branches for each of the videos in the course. You can use the branch pop up menu in github to switch to a specific branch and take a look at the course at that stage, or you can add /tree/BRANCH_NAME to the URL to go to the branch you want to access.

Branches

The branches are structured to correspond to the videos in the course. The naming convention is CHAPTER#_MOVIE#. As an example, the branch named 02_03 corresponds to the second chapter and the third video in that chapter. Some branches will have a beginning and an end state. These are marked with the letters b for "beginning" and e for "end". The b branch contains the code as it is at the beginning of the movie. The e branch contains the code as it is at the end of the movie. The main branch holds the final state of the code when in the course.
