Root babel.config.js not loaded

See original GitHub issue

Describe the bug Storybook does not load any babel.config.js files (in either root or .storybook). It only loads .storybook/.babelrc files.

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

Create a new storybook app
Add a root-level babel.config.js file
Run app
See that config is not loaded

Expected behavior Storybook should be able to load both babel config formats.

Code snippets I believe this is the code responsible: https://github.com/storybooks/storybook/blob/fba0541a2bbbd3b51943b21d3f8d2282e33286d6/lib/core/src/server/utils/load-custom-babel-config.js#L62

I created an empty .babelrc in the storybook config directory and it respects my root babel.config.js

Nope, babelModeV7: true didn’t make a difference
