Clear and concise description of the problem

I want an option that will automatically open up the browser window when starting dev server or preview

I typically use --open in my package.json scripts but when trying to use this with Histoire it did not work.

Suggested solution

i.e.

  "scripts": {
    "story:dev": "histoire dev --port 6006 --open",
    "story:build": "histoire build",
    "story:preview": "histoire preview --port 6006 --open"
  },

:laughing: , right after i submitted feature request i figured out how to do it.

Vite can do this easily from within the vite.config.js file

export default defineConfig({
  server: {
    open: '/' 
  }
})

you may or may not want to reimplement this functionality for histoire so i'll leave open for now
