Windows 98 React Component Library
Overview
Packard Belle is a CSS framework and component library created to mimic the style and behavior of an old home computer.

- SCSS
SCSS is a preprocessor scripting language that extends the capabilities of CSS by adding features such as variables, nesting, and mixins. It allows developers to write more efficient and maintainable CSS code, and helps to streamline the development process by reducing repetition and increasing reusability.
- Eslint
ESLint is a linter for JavaScript that analyzes code to detect and report on potential problems and errors, as well as enforce consistent code style and best practices, helping developers to write cleaner, more maintainable code.
- Rollup
RollupJS is a popular and efficient JavaScript module bundler that takes the code from multiple modules and packages them into a single optimized file, minimizing the overall size of the application and improving its performance.
- Storybook
Storybook is a tool for developing and testing UI components in isolation. It provides a sandbox environment where you can experiment with different props and states to see how your component responds.
- Stylelint
Stylelint is a modern linter for CSS that helps you avoid errors and enforce consistent styling conventions. It provides rules for detecting errors and warnings, and can be configured to match your specific project's requirements.
