This document defines every presentational component to be built in Storybook using Mantine. Components are organized bottom-up: elements first, then groups, then screens. Each component receives all data and callbacks via props — no store access.

Props Pattern

Every component exports a Props interface. Callbacks use the onVerb convention. Boolean flags use canVerb or isState naming.

// Example
export interface StatusIndicatorProps {
  status: 'connected' | 'connecting' | 'disconnected' | 'failed';
  latencyMs?: number;
  retryCount?: number;
}

Story Pattern

Each component has at minimum a Default story plus stories for each meaningful state variation.

const meta: Meta<typeof StatusIndicator> = {
  component: StatusIndicator,
  decorators: [MantineDecorator],
};

export const Connected: Story = { args: { status: 'connected', latencyMs: 23 } };
export const Failed: Story = { args: { status: 'failed', retryCount: 3 } };

Storybook Configuration

Global Setup

// .storybook/preview.tsx
import { MantineProvider } from '@mantine/core';
import '@mantine/core/styles.css';
import { theme } from '../src/theme';

export const decorators = [
  (Story) => (
    <MantineProvider theme={theme}>
      <Story />
    </MantineProvider>
  ),
];

export const parameters = {
  layout: 'centered',       // elements/groups
  // layout: 'fullscreen',  // screens/views
};

Addon Recommendations

Addon	Purpose
storybook-addon-mantine	Theme switching, color scheme toggle
@storybook/addon-actions	Log callback invocations
@storybook/addon-controls	Interactive prop editing
@storybook/addon-viewport	Responsive testing
@storybook/addon-a11y	Accessibility checks

Theme Configuration

The Mantine theme should be defined once and shared between Storybook and the application:

// src/theme.ts
import { createTheme } from '@mantine/core';

export const theme = createTheme({
  primaryColor: 'dark',
  // Inspector-specific overrides
});

Dark Mode Stories

Every component should be verified in both light and dark mode. Use storybook-addon-mantine to provide a global toggle rather than duplicating stories.
