Notes of the book System Desgin Interview - An Insider's Guide

Save to My finds to follow releases and star growth. Saved in this browser.

About the project

Notes from Alex Xu's System Design Interview books (Vol 1 and 2), covering 28 classic system design problems — from rate limiters and key-value stores to YouTube, Google Drive, and a stock exchange. For interview preparation and studying distributed system architecture.

Useful for
  • Prepare for a system design interview by reviewing common design problems
  • Study distributed system design approaches through concrete case studies
  • Use the notes as an architecture cheat sheet when designing a service

4.1 Breakout Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 8, 2026, 11:14 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

07501,500July 11, 2026October 8, 2026

Bars show daily stars; the line is a moving average of the available history. Short histories do not yet establish a reliable usual pace. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • There are not enough fresh counter measurements for today's UTC day. The gain is unknown.
  • Over the last two days the pace is 1.9× that of the previous week and a half.
  • GitHub Trending today: #9, +398 stars.
  • About 26 forks a day — people are taking the code.

Star trust

Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.

These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
