Design AI response UX with streaming states, cancel/retry controls, and rate-limit handling so users stay in control during slow or failed outputs.

What you’ll build / What this tests

This premium front-end system design system design focuses on AI UX Resilience and Control Patterns. You’ll apply ux and error-handling thinking with intermediate level constraints. The prompt emphasizes Design AI response UX with streaming states, cancel/retry controls, and rate-limit handling so users stay in….

Learning goals

  • Decompose AI UX Resilience and Control Patterns into front-end components, state, and data flow.
  • Apply ux, error-handling, state-management constraints to a real client architecture.
  • Define performance budgets and UX trade-offs for the interface.
  • Plan instrumentation and resilience for user-facing failures.

Key decisions to discuss

  • Choose a data model that matches UI reads and writes.
  • Pick a pagination + caching strategy to keep the UI fast.
  • Set performance budgets (LCP/INP) and validate with telemetry.

Evaluation rubric

  • Architecture: clear client data flow and component boundaries.
  • Performance: budgets + caching/virtualization where needed.
  • Resilience: offline/error states and retries defined.
  • Observability: metrics/logs to validate UX and perf.

Constraints / Requirements

  • Design AI response UX with streaming states, cancel/retry controls, and rate-limit handling so users stay in…
  • Requirements exploration
  • Architecture / High-level design
  • Data model
  • Interface definition (API)
  • Optimizations and deep dive
  • Assume real users and real latency; budget for perceived performance.
  • Define client-side caching and invalidation strategy.
  • Plan pagination or windowing for large UI lists.
  • Batch UI updates and handle reconnection/backoff.

Mini snippet (architecture sketch)

Constraints:
- P95 UI response < 200ms
- 1k+ events/sec during peak
- Focus: ux, error-handling

Components:
- Client cache + pagination
- Realtime updates (SSE/WebSocket)
- Observability + error states

Endpoints:
- GET /feed?cursor=
- POST /events

Common pitfalls

  • Ignoring pagination/virtualization for long feeds.
  • Underestimating client performance budgets.
  • Overfetching data or failing to cache responses.
  • Skipping failure states and retry UX.
