## Basic Configurations

React Storybook uses a JavaScript file at `.storybook/config.js` as the entry point. This is the file loaded by webpack when it's initializing. You can configure a few things inside it.

* If your app has a root CSS file(s), simply import it into `.storybook/config.js`.

* Just like this, you can use any CSS loader you want, whether it's CSS Modules, SCSS, Less or anything.
