## What it is
A repository containing content from the 'Grokking the System Design Interview' course, a popular Educative course for preparing for system design interviews. It mirrors course material covering scalable distributed system design patterns and interview questions.

## Use cases
- prepare for system design interview questions
- learn how to design scalable systems like URL shorteners and chat apps
- study distributed systems fundamentals for interviews
- review common system design patterns before an interview
- practice structuring answers to open-ended design problems

## When to choose
- you are preparing for a system design interview at a tech company
- you want free access to the course's written material
- you need a quick refresher on scalability, sharding, caching, and load balancing concepts

## When to avoid
- you want up-to-date content, since the repo has not been updated since 2021 and the official course has evolved
- you need interactive lessons or mock interviews, which require the paid Educative course
- you are looking for runnable code or a software tool rather than study material
