Discussion on: We're the core maintainers of Storybook, Ask Us Anything!

[Nick Taylor]

You probably could. It's pretty minimal webpack changes. You include a plugin/loader and you're good to go. Here's the current TypeScript/React project I'm working on's webpack config for Storybook

/**
 * This extends the default webpack configuration used in storybook.
 */
const { resolve } = require('path');
const ForkTsCheckerWebpackPlugin = require('fork-ts-checker-webpack-plugin');
const HappyPack = require('happypack');

module.exports = {
  devtool: 'cheap-module-source-map',
  resolve: {
    extensions: ['.ts', '.tsx', '.js'],
    alias: {
      types: resolve(__dirname, '../types'),
      helpers: resolve(__dirname, '../src', 'helpers'),
      services: resolve(__dirname, '../src', 'services'),

      actions: resolve(__dirname, '../src', 'actions'),
      components: resolve(__dirname, '../src', 'components'),
      routes: resolve(__dirname, '../src', 'routes'),
      utilities: resolve(__dirname, '../src', 'utilities'),
      assets: resolve(__dirname, '../src', 'assets'),
    },
  },
  module: {
    rules: [
      {
        test: /\.tsx?$/,
        exclude: /node_modules/,
        loader: 'happypack/loader?id=ts',
      },
    ],
  },
  plugins: [
    new HappyPack({
      id: 'ts',
      threads: 2,
      loaders: [
