A common library for Developer UI components and utilities.

• yarn build - Build all packages, including the Storybook site
• yarn dev - Run all packages locally and preview with Storybook
• yarn lint - Lint all packages
• yarn changeset - Generate a changeset
• yarn clean - Clean up all node_modules and dist folders (runs each package's clean script)

This repo is configured as a monorepo and uses turborepo to manage the workspaces. It includes the following packages and applications:

• docs: Component documentation site with Storybook
• packages/core: Core React components
• packages/typescript-config: Shared tsconfig.jsons used throughout the Turborepo
• packages/eslint-config: ESLint preset

Each package and app is 100% TypeScript. Workspaces enables us to "hoist" dependencies that are shared between packages to the root package.json. This means smaller node_modules folders and a better local dev experience. To install a dependency for the entire monorepo, use the -w workspaces flag with yarn add.

This repo sets up your .gitignore to exclude all generated files, other folders like node_modules used to store your dependencies.

To make the core library code work across all browsers, we need to compile the raw TypeScript and React code to plain JavaScript. We can accomplish this with rollup, which is configured specifically to build a react component library.

Running yarn build from the root of the Turborepo will run the build command defined in each package's package.json file. Turborepo runs each build in parallel and caches & hashes the output to speed up future builds.

For @aonic-ui/core, the build command is the following:

rollup -c

rollup compiles src/index.tsx, which exports all of the components in the design system, into both ES Modules and CommonJS formats as well as their TypeScript types. The package.json for @aonic-ui/core then instructs the consumer to select the correct format:

{
  "name": "@aonic-ui/core",
  "version": "0.0.0",
  "main": "./dist/cjs/index.js",
  "module": "./dist/esm/index.js",
  "types": "./dist/index.d.ts",
  "sideEffects": false,
}

Run yarn build to confirm compilation is working correctly. You should see a folder @aonic-ui/core/dist which contains the compiled output.

@aonic-ui/core
└── dist
    ├── index.d.ts  <-- Types
    ├── cjs/index.js    <-- CommonJS version
    └── esm/index.mjs   <-- ES Modules version

Each file inside of @aonic-ui/core is a component inside our design system. For example:

import * as React from 'react';

export interface ButtonProps {
  children: React.ReactNode;
}

export function Button(props: ButtonProps) {
  return <button>{props.children}</button>;
}

Button.displayName = 'Button';

When adding a new file, ensure the component is also exported from the entry index.tsx file:

import * as React from "react";
export { Button, type ButtonProps } from "./Button";
// Add new component exports here

Storybook provides us with an interactive UI playground for our components. This allows us to preview our components in the browser and instantly see changes when developing locally. This example preconfigures Storybook to:

• Use Vite to bundle stories instantly (in milliseconds)
• Automatically find any stories inside the stories/ folder
• Support using module path aliases like @acme-core for imports
• Write MDX for component documentation pages

For example, here's the included Story for our Button component:

import { Button } from '@aonic-ui/core/src';
import { Meta, Story, Preview, Props } from '@storybook/addon-docs/blocks';

<Meta title="Components/Button" component={Button} />

# Button

Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Donec euismod, nisl eget consectetur tempor, nisl nunc egestas nisi, euismod aliquam nisl nunc euismod.

## Props

<Props of={Box} />

## Examples

<Preview>
  <Story name="Default">
    <Button>Hello</Button>
  </Story>
</Preview>

This example includes a few helpful Storybook scripts:

• yarn dev: Starts Storybook in dev mode with hot reloading at localhost:6006
• yarn build: Builds the Storybook UI and generates the static HTML files
• yarn preview-storybook: Starts a local server to view the generated Storybook UI
