 As Storybook relies on [esbuild](https://esbuild.github.io/) instead of Webpack to build the UI, presets that depend on the `managerWebpack` API to configure the manager or load additional files other than CSS or images will no longer work. We recommend removing it from your preset and adjusting your configuration to convert any additional files to JavaScript.

-## What about Webpack 4 support?
+## Compiler support
 
-Support for Webpack 4 has been removed and is no longer being maintained. If you're upgrading your Storybook, it will automatically use Webpack 5 and attempt to migrate your configuration. However, if you're working with a custom Webpack configuration, you may need to update it to work with Webpack 5. The migration process is necessary to ensure that your project runs smoothly with the latest version of Storybook. You can follow the instructions provided on the Webpack [website](https://webpack.js.org/migrate/5/) to update your configuration.
+Out of the box, Storybook provides a compiler-agnostic approach to bundling your project, allowing you to use the same tooling you use to bundle your application (e.g., [Babel](https://babeljs.io/), [SWC](https://swc.rs/)), enabling efficient and performant component development within the ecosystem of Webpack 5-based projects.
+
+### SWC
+
+If you're working with a project built using [SWC](https://swc.rs/) for faster builds and improved performance, you can use the [`@storybook/addon-webpack5-compiler-swc`](https://storybook.js.org/addons/@storybook/addon-webpack5-compiler-swc) addon, allowing you the same performance benefits and compatibility with your project. Run the following command to set up the addon automatically:

+<!-- prettier-ignore-start -->
+
+<CodeSnippets
+  paths={[
+    'common/storybook-addon-compiler-swc-auto-install.npm.js.mdx',
+    'common/storybook-addon-compiler-swc-auto-install.pnpm.js.mdx',
+    'common/storybook-addon-compiler-swc-auto-install.yarn.js.mdx',
+  ]}
+/>
+
+<!-- prettier-ignore-end -->
+
+<Callout variant="info">
+
+Additional options can be provided to customize the SWC configuration. See the [SWC API documentation](../api/main-config-swc.md) for more information.
+
+</Callout>
+
+When enabled, the addon will adjust the Webpack configuration to use the [`swc-loader`](https://swc.rs/docs/usage/swc-loader) as the default loader for JavaScript and TypeScript files and will detect and use your project's SWC configuration.
+
+### Babel
+
+If you're working with a project that relies on Babel's tooling to provide support for specific features, including TypeScript or other modern JavaScript features, you can use the [`@storybook/addon-webpack5-compiler-babel`](https://storybook.js.org/addons/@storybook/addon-webpack5-compiler-babel) addon to allow you to include them in your Storybook to ensure compatibility with your project. Run the following command to set up the addon automatically:

+<!-- prettier-ignore-start -->
+
+<CodeSnippets
+  paths={[
+    'common/storybook-addon-compiler-babel-auto-install.npm.js.mdx',

+    'common/storybook-addon-compiler-babel-auto-install.yarn.js.mdx',
+  ]}
+/>
+
+<!-- prettier-ignore-end -->
+
+<Callout variant="info">
+
+Additional options can be provided to customize the Babel configuration. See the [`babel` API documentation](../api/main-config-babel.md) for more information, or if you're working on an addon, the [`babelDefault` documentation](../api/main-config-babel-default.md) for more information.
