storybook install inside react libs, any suggestion?

I just ran into the same issue!

In my case it turned out that Nx added a devDependency for @babel/core targetting version 8.0.6, which doesn't exist (latest version is 7.8.7).
This makes the npm install fail silently and thus the storybook files aren't being installed inside node_modules.

The workaround:

1. Remove the invalid @babel/core target from the devDependencies and manually install it using npm install --save-dev @babel/core@latest.
2. Re-run npm install, which will correctly install everything related to storybook now.
3. Now you can start your storybook as expected, in your case nx run octo-clicks-ui:storybook

Hope this solved your problem!

Please don't close this issue as this is a real issue.
Nx should target the correct babel/core version.

The above PR should fix this for everyone.

Just wanted to add that this affects angular libs as well.
