I tried to install the latest Storybook into existing project:

npx storybook@latest init

Result: Error: TypeError: wnt.default is not a function`

Expected result: Storybook succesfully installed.

Answer 1

I fixed it by bumping up the version of storybook-addon.

// package.json:

...
"@chakra-ui/storybook-addon": "^5.1.0",
...
