Deploy to Vercel

You should already know how to do it.

If you're using the Redux-vite template make sure to change the output directory to 'build' in project settings on Vercel:

Make sure it is deployed successfully.

Storybook

• Install:

pnpm dlx storybook@latest init

Accept eslint config

• Try it out:

pnpm run storybook

Install fonts

Fontsource/montserrat

pnpm install @fontsource-variable/montserrat

// main.tsx

import '@fontsource-variable/montserrat'

Set up css variables

• Create an src/styles directory in your project
  containing the following files:

src  
 └── styles  
 └── \_boilerplate.scss  
 └── \_colors.scss  
 └── \_typography.scss  
 └── index.scss

• Add the following to index.scss:

@forward 'colors';
@forward 'typography';
@forward 'boilerplate';

• Add the following to _colors.scss:

:root {
  // text
  --color-text-primary: #000;
  --color-text-secondary: #fff;

  // backgrounds
  --color-bg-primary: #3d3d3d;
  --color-bg-secondary: #fcfcfc;
  --color-bg-tertiary: #efefef;

  // palette
  --color-primary: #366eff;
  --color-secondary: #ffc700;
  --color-danger: #ff3636;
}

Add any extra colors you need yourself

• Add the following to _typography.scss:

:root {
  --font-family-primary: 'Montserrat Variable', sans-serif;

  // line heights
  --line-height-xs: 0.991rem;
  --line-height-s: 1.219rem;
  --line-height-m: 1.5rem;
  --line-height-l: 1.75rem;
}

Add font sizes and font weights yourself

Transform font sizes to rem: https://nekocalc.com/px-to-rem-converter

• Add the following to _boilerplate.scss:

html {
  font-size: 100%;

  -webkit-font-smoothing: antialiased;
  -moz-osx-font-smoothing: grayscale;
}

*,
*::before,
*::after {
  box-sizing: border-box;
}

input,
button,
select,
textarea,
optgroup,
option {
  font-family: inherit;
  font-size: inherit;
  font-weight: inherit;
  font-style: inherit;
  color: inherit;
}

body {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;

  font-family: var(--font-family-primary);
  line-height: var(--line-height-m);
  color: var(--color-text-primary);

  background-color: var(--color-bg-primary);
}

• Import index.scss in main.tsx:

// main.tsx

import './styles/index.scss'

• Import fonts and styles in storybook:

// .storybook/preview.tsx
import '@fontsource-variable/montserrat'
import '../src/styles/index.scss'

Components

• Create an src/components/ui directory in your project

Button

• Create a button directory in src/components/ui with the following files:

src  
 └── components  
 └── ui  
 └── button  
 └── button.tsx  
 └── button.module.scss  
 └── button.stories.ts
└── index.ts

Try to create the component yourself first

Essentially, we are going to have 5 variants of our button:

• Primary (blue)
• Secondary (white)
• Danger (orange)
• Full width
• A link that looks like a button

What it means is that we are going to need these props: https://www.tints.dev

import { ComponentPropsWithoutRef } from 'react'

type ButtonProps = {
  variant?: 'primary' | 'secondary' | 'danger'
  fullWidth?: boolean
} & ComponentPropsWithoutRef<'button'>

The problem here is that we are getting button props, but we will also need it to be a link, and, potentially, a react-router-dom Link, so we want to make our component polymorphic:
