“Visual regression testing catches bugs that unit tests miss. The Storybook publishing and review workflow is seamless.”

“Design review directly on PRs is game-changing. No more 'does this match the design?' back and forth.”
“Long-running, durable background jobs are the infrastructure AI agents need. Trigger.dev v3 delivers exactly this.”
