full storybook (preview + manager including addons!) bundled by parceljs instead of webpack

1. zero config react + typescript support (no babel, no webpack or any other config)
2. glob import all stories (*.stories.ts), see ./storybook/iframe.ts
3. fast bundling -- fast storybook preview bundling thanks to parceljs -- storybook manager prebuilt and included in git (approach used by snowpack and yarn 2 cache sharing), so no time spent to build it

git clone https://github.com/vasileermicioi/parcel-storybook

cd parcel-storybook

yarn install

yarn storybook

if you need more addons (now only actions and knobs) you can modify ./storybook/config/main.js

yarn rebuild-manager

yarn storybook

!! don't forget to commit newly generated files !! rebuild manager only when you need to change manager config, not the preview or stories

storybook published a standalone preview powered by parceljs (see here https://github.com/storybookjs/storybook/tree/next/examples/standalone-preview) but the example is not working with the addons because the preview is inside an iframe with different origin, (see here storybookjs/storybook#8677) cross-origin requests/communication being blocked by browsers (same domain but different port is considered another origin)

running storybook with parceljs (because of it's simplicity) seems to be a popular request storybookjs/storybook#10110 storybookjs/storybook#8677 storybookjs/storybook#5975 (comment)

main problem is to fix cross-origin communication, I was able to solve that in 2 ways

1. reverse proxy both the manager and the preview so they are in the same domain
2. build static manager (how often are you changing storybook config?) and serving / watching only the preview having storybook manager as static assets

so current repo is solved using second approach
