## Documentation

We use [Storybook](https://storybook.js.org/docs/html/get-started/introduction) as a way to provide informative and interactive documentation.

It can be found here [Optics Documentation](https://docs.optics.rolemodel.design/)

### Token Documentation

We use the Storybook Design Token for showing design tokens in the documentation. This allows us to tag groups of tokens with a category and a presenter.

[Available Presenters](https://github.com/UX-and-I/storybook-design-token#available-presenters)

Add the following above a group to categorize the tokens.

```css
/**
* @tokens Basic Colors
* @presenter Color
*/
```

### Component Documentation

For instructions on how to create a new component, see [Process for Creating New Components](./NEW_COMPONENT.md)

Additional stories can be added using the following command, or copying an existing story.

```sh
npm run generate
```

The visual graphic found on the Selective Imports page in the documentation is generated from the `tools/generate-graph.dot` file. You can preview and export a newer svg version of the graphic by using the `tintinweb.graphviz-interactive-preview` VSCode extension.
