I started working on it here storybookjs/storybook#18672 We need to be sure that the storybook team will accept Riot.js into its core.

According to the discord chat I had with @shilman the storybook team needs a maintainer for the RIot.js addon.
They are not interested in maintaining the addon themselves.
Storybook 7 will change heavily the addons API and the documentation is not yet available online, so this means that its development will require several days.

Since I already have to maintain ~30 Riot.js modules, the storybook addon development and maintenance would be too much for me. Storybook is not interested in sponsoring the development of the addon and they are just looking for an external maintainer for the job.

I need someone from the Riot.js community that is interested in working on it, I will provide my guidance and support if needed. If you are interested you can submit your expenses here and I will be glad to sponsor your work.
Unfortunately I can't do everything myself.

Thank you for considering and researching!
I understand the situation better now.
I will try to recruit someone who can help it as much as I possible.

I agree, Storybook support is exactly what I need right now

[nibushibu]

@kachurunus I agree. 👍
In addition, I do not want to place an undue burden on @GianlucaGuarini, who continues to develop Riot, and I feel that Storybook support needs to be accomplished by the community.
If you or anyone around you is willing to help, I would be happy to spread the word about this thread.

I will work on the Riot.js router and animations in future. I am sorry but I have no time to work on the storybook plugin as well. The implementation should be trivial with the current Riot.js API though. Let me know if you have questions
