🚀 New Chromatic updates are here. We’ve been sharpening the testing experience so teams can spot issues earlier and triage way faster. Accessibility testing, UI clarity, and Page Shift Detection all got meaningful upgrades. 🧵 (1/7)

AI is beginning to use design systems exactly as documented. Gaps in examples, states & constraints lead directly to unpredictable UI output. Join Brad Frost + Dominic Nguyen in a live session to cover what makes a system agent-ready. 📆 Dec 11 • 12PM ET 🔗 Registration link below

Agents can’t “just read the repo.” Thousands of files + type soup = instant confusion. Storybook MCP gives agents only the good stuff—curated patterns from your stories, docs & tests—and a loop to self-fix with your component tests. Link to request early access in comments 👇

UI testing covers a huge surface area—logic, visuals, interactions, a11y, user flows. The challenge isn’t running tests; it’s choosing the right approach. We break down a component-driven strategy that aligns with how modern UIs are built. 👉 www.chromatic.com/blog/how-to-...

🧵 (1/3) Most AI-generated code looks good until you try to merge it. Wrong props, odd states, subtle regressions. Storybook MCP fixes that. It turns your stories, docs & tests into machine-readable context so agents actually follow your patterns.

Most teams fix a11y issues. Not all stop creating new ones. Tomorrow, our product team is sharing how we built a system that does both—cutting 15k+ violations without slowing delivery. Join us live & bring your questions! 📅 Nov 13 • 12 PM ET / 18 CET 👉 Register in comments

We cut our a11y issues by 94% after we stopped treating them as tickets & started treating them as system flow. Then we blocked new regressions in CI, inflow dropped to zero & the backlog finally moved. Now we’re sharing how we did it in a live session. 🔗 Link in comments

You can’t trust what you can’t reproduce. Flaky tests pass, fail, then pass again — not because of randomness, but rendering instability. This Thursday, Scott Johnson, PhD from Chromatic shows how SteadySnap has cut false diffs by 34%. 🗓️ Oct 30 · 12 PM EDT 🔗 Registration link in comments 👇

Your test fails. You rerun it. It passes. Flake ≠ random. It’s render instability. Join Chromatic’s graphics specialist, Scott Johnson, to learn what causes flake & how SteadySnap cuts visual inconsistencies by 34%. 🗓️ Oct 30 · 12 PM EDT / 18 CET 👇 Registration in comments

Storybook’s CSF Next is coming 👀 Faster story authoring. Less boilerplate. Built-in TypeScript. And a sneak peek at the new .test() method for writing component tests that feel natural. Join our Storybook maintainers live on Oct 16 for a live demo of what’s next. Registration in comments 👇

We cut @chromatic.com total accessibility violations by over 66% in the last 6 weeks. Here's how: Over the years, we accrued a11y debt because it was everyone and no one's responsibility. Sure, we did VPATs but they were out of date the moment they were finished.

AI can write your UI. But can you trust it? Kevin Leneway, (Principal AI SE, Pioneer Square Labs) uses Cursor × Storybook to turn raw AI output into prototypes you can validate fast. 🗓️ Oct 12 — 12 PM EDT / 18:00 CET 🔗 Registration link in comments

Thursday: @tpitre.bsky.social (CEO, Southleft) shows what happens when you give AI your design system: ⚡ On-brand UI from the first prompt 🧩 Storybook + MCP + Claude workflows 🚀 Faster prototyping, fewer re-prompts Don’t miss it! (link in comments)

AI-generated UI ≠ production UI. AI UI is off-brand without your design system, and falls apart in production. Join us live with @tpitre.bsky.social, CEO of Southleft & AI-powered DS expert, to see how Storybook + MCP + Claude generate UI from your real components. Registration in comments 👇

👀 Reminder: our webinar’s tomorrow A11y testing isn’t either/or. Automated checks catch the obvious. Manual testing catches the weird stuff. Used together = fewer bugs in prod. Join us + Homer Gaines, CPACC to break down a workflow that scales. 🎫 Save your spot: us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regi...

Automated a11y tests = fast + scalable. Manual a11y testing = real-world coverage. Used together? You catch more bugs before they ship. Join us + accessibility expert Homer Gaines to build a workflow that works. 🗓️ Tues, Aug 5 — 12PM EDT 🎟️ register here → us02web.zoom.us/webinar/regi...
