Why does the @atlaskit/storybook-addon-design-system package export an empty object in index.ts ?

[Goutam Singla]

I was exploring the source code of the @atlaskit/storybook-addon-design-system package and noticed that index.ts inside the src directory exports an empty object ({}).

when i try to import withDesignTokens function for setting decorator in storybook config file then i got empty object error. How to solve this problem?

and also if i try to import withDesignTokens from decorator file inside src folder then type is not matched with what storybook decorator is seeking?

Hi @Goutam Singla 

This addon is designed to be used via Storybook configuration, not by manually importing decorators.

You should register/inject it in .storybook/main.ts

export default {
  addons: ['@atlaskit/storybook-addon-design-system'],
};

If you need a design token decorator, instead of using withDesignTokens, use the Atlaskit setup

import { setGlobalTheme } from '@atlaskit/tokens';

this is the supported way to enable design tokens.

Please take it with a pinch of salt, but you may find more answers if you post this to Atlassian Developer Community.
