Systems Design LabLearn systems design by running real infrastructure.

Short lessons, Docker Compose profiles, guided demos, and capstone design exercises.

Runnable Lessons

Start only the services a module needs, run its demo script, and observe the behavior directly.

Work with gateways, databases, caches, queues, event streams, object storage, vector search, and observability.

Use the same concepts to work through end-to-end capstones like TinyURL, news feeds, chat, and rate limiters.

bash

cp .env.example .env
make base
curl http://localhost:8080/api/health

Then choose a lesson from the module guide.
