    "**/*.stories.{jsx,tsx,js,ts}",
    "**/*.d.ts"

Troubleshooting

It’s recommended to install stylebit cli globally. Make sure you have it installed globally before moving forward.
  • If you select technology but nothing happens make sure you provide correct config.json path. To see exact message run in --verbose mode
  • If you see an error
    ENOENT: no such file or directory, open ‘$Home/.stylebit/credentials’
    make sure you are logged in. stylebit login will navigate you to the browser. Log in there and you will get your credentials for the cli. If you were logged in, probably your token has expired. Try to login again.
