Fixing Bootstrap Icons in React Storybook: A Step-by-Step Guide

When building a project with React and integrating various components through Storybook, you might run into challenges—especially when it comes to displaying Bootstrap icons. If you've recently encountered the issue where your Bootstrap icon components don't show up in Storybook, you're not alone. This can be frustrating, but fortunately, there's a simple solution to this problem.

Understanding the Issue

As you develop components using react-bootstrap, you might think that all your components are set up correctly, only to find that some components that include Bootstrap icons are not rendering as expected. This can happen due to the absence of the necessary stylesheets in your Storybook configuration, which are essential for rendering Bootstrap icons properly.

The Quick Fix

To solve the issue of missing Bootstrap icons in your React Storybook components, you just need to follow these straightforward steps:

Step 1: Locate Your Storybook Configuration

Navigate to the .storybook directory in your project. This is where you will configure global settings for Storybook, including adding CSS files.

Step 2: Import Bootstrap Icons

Open the preview.js file found within the .storybook folder. This file is essential as it sets the scene for all your Storybook stories.

Step 3: Add the Bootstrap Icons Import

At the top of your preview.js file, insert the following line of code:

This line of code imports the Bootstrap icons stylesheet, allowing Storybook to recognize and render the icons used in your components.

Step 4: Save and Restart Storybook

After making the changes, be sure to save the file.

Restart your Storybook development server if it's already running. You can do this by stopping the server (Ctrl + C if running in a terminal) and then starting it again with the command:

Testing Your Changes

Once Storybook is back up and running, navigate to the components where you are using Bootstrap icons. You should now see the icons displayed correctly.

Conclusion

Integrating Bootstrap icons into your React Storybook components may seem daunting at first, especially when they fail to display. However, by simply importing the required stylesheet in your preview.js file, you can swiftly resolve this issue. Now, you can focus on building your components without worrying about the icons not rendering.
