Master System DesignThrough Play

Build, test, and optimize real-world system architectures. Learn by doing with interactive simulations of production scenarios.

How It Works

Four simple steps to master system design

1

Set Requirements

Define functional needs and non-functional targets like RPS, latency, and availability.

2

Choose Architecture

Pick from proven patterns like cache-first, global CDN, or DB-only architectures.

3

Design Details

Define schemas, APIs, and capacity planning with real-time validation and hints.

4

Review & Validate

Get scored feedback, share your design, and test it in the sandbox simulator.
