Developer Experience: DevTools, hot reload, and Storybook integration #65
Description
Overview
Enhance developer experience with modern tooling for Chatfield development.
Proposed Features
1. DevTools Integration
- Browser extension or in-app devtools for inspecting interview state
- Visualize conversation flow and field collection status
- Debug LangGraph state machine transitions
- Inspect LLM prompts and responses
2. Hot Module Replacement (HMR)
- Fast refresh for interview definition changes
- Preserve conversation state during development
- Works with Vite, Next.js, and other modern bundlers
3. Storybook Integration
- Component library for React components
- Interactive documentation
- Visual regression testing
- Example interview scenarios
Implementation Notes
- Start with Storybook as lowest-hanging fruit
- HMR already works with standard bundlers, may just need documentation
- DevTools would be most complex but highest value
Scope
- TypeScript/React focus initially
- Browser-based tooling
- Documentation and examples
