[Bug?]: Storybook Fails to Load Components

[alissa-pullflow]

What's not working?

Storybook is not loading any components. When starting Storybook, the interface opens, but no components are visible in the sidebar. Additionally, the preview area is empty, and there are no error messages or any visible indication of what went wrong. This prevents users from viewing or testing their components within Storybook.

How do we reproduce the bug?

Run npm run storybook or yarn storybook in the project root.
Wait for Storybook to start in the browser.
Observe that the interface loads, but the component list is missing, and the preview area is blank.
Try reloading the page or restarting Storybook, but the issue persists.

What's your environment? (If it applies)

Mac Os, Chrome Browser

This is very unlikely to be your problem, but in case anyone else stumbles here like I did, I had a similar issue. My redwood storybook couldn't load (was 404ing on http://localhost:7910/sb-addons/essentials-toolbars-4/manager-bundle.js - and in fact was not even creating the web/node_modules/.cache/storybook/public/ directory).
It turned out that the issue was @million/lint (a fancy react render tracker that i was trying out) in my web/vite.config.js - i didn't even have the plugin enabled, just the import was enough to break it.

I've filed an issue with million: aidenybai/million#1163
