Getting Started with React Cosmos
To install React Cosmos, simply use npm or Yarn to add it to your React project. Then, create a package.json script to enable you to start your Cosmos project.
Building Your First React Component
Create a fixture file, such as button.fixture.js
, and update it with your component code. React Cosmos will track it easily, and you’ll see your first component listed under All Fixtures at localhost:5000.
Updating Your React Components
Update your component code, create a CSS stylesheet, and see the changes at localhost:5000. You can create multiple components, and they’ll show up in your pre-rendered dashboard for viewing.
Multi-Fixture Files
Export multiple components from a single fixture file by placing them in an object. This allows you to export multiple components with one fixture file, making it more convenient.
