FAQPage Schema
How do I automatically generate component documentation in Storybook?

Automatically generate component documentation in Storybook by enabling autodocs, which creates documentation pages from your existing stories with minimal configuration. Add JSDoc comments to component props so Storybook extracts them into detailed API tables automatically.

What's the best way to document component props and types for Storybook?

Document component props using JSDoc comments in your source code. Storybook automatically extracts these JSDoc annotations to generate comprehensive API tables showing prop names, types, descriptions, and defaults without manual documentation work.

Can I create custom documentation pages alongside Storybook autodocs?

Yes. Use MDX pages to create custom documentation with rich text, live code examples, and interactive stories alongside your auto-generated autodocs. MDX allows you to blend narrative content with live component instances for comprehensive guidance.

Do I need to write separate documentation if I'm using Storybook?

No. Storybook autodocs eliminates separate documentation by automatically generating API references and usage pages from your stories and JSDoc comments, reducing duplication and keeping docs in sync with component changes.

How does JSDoc extraction work with Storybook's autodocs?

JSDoc extraction analyzes JSDoc comments in your component source code—prop descriptions, type annotations, and defaults—and Storybook's autodocs automatically converts them into formatted API documentation tables displayed on component pages.

What should I include in component stories to support auto-generated documentation?

Include JSDoc comments documenting props, types, and descriptions in your component source. Create stories that showcase typical usage patterns and edge cases. Storybook autodocs pulls from both to generate complete, example-rich documentation automatically.
