24 alternatives to System Design Practice and Discussion
Many platforms exist for a candidate to practice leetcode style questions. Created one to practice and discuss system design problem statements. There is no auto evaluation as high level design is subjective, but we support upvotes/downvotes and a comment section for feedback and discussion. Looking for early feedback.
Below are 24 products that do a similar job, ranked by how close each is in meaning and then by launch-day votes. System Design Practice and Discussion launched in 2022; newer entries below may have overtaken it.

LeetSys▲7I built a free platform for practicing system design interviews!: https://leetsys.dev. The currently available problems will always be listed as free! It lets you chat with an interviewer in real time as you work through a system design problem. It also gives you detailed feedback at the end of the interview that you can use to assess your performance and see where you can improve. Please try it out and let me know what you think!

As you solve LeetCode questions, you can mark them as hard, medium, or easy. The tool will then recommend questions you should review based on (1) how hard the question was for you and (2) how much time has passed since you last reviewed it. I'd recommend normally attempting LeetCode problems and just marking them as hard, medium, or easy for you at first so the tool knows which problems to recommend you review! Here's the theory behind spaced repetition and learning if interested: https://www.codecademy.com/article/spaced-repetition

I've long had a dislike for leetcode interviews on both sides of the coin. Project-based interviews can also be challenging because it can end up filtering out folks who don't want to spend several hours building something in their free time. I met up with a friend last year -- a very senior dev -- who had taken some time off to study leetcode exercises while preparing for FAANG interviews. It struck me that one of the key measures of whether a candidate is a fit for a team is rather synthetic. CodeRev.app is a simple, lightweight tool that helps teams evaluate candidates using code reviews.…

Howdy friends! Tell me if this is an atrociously terrible idea - I've been working on building a leetcode for clientside devs so we can practice React and Javascript interview questions in a more concise way, I call it clientside.dev I just finished a beta version of it yesterday and plan on releasing it with many more problems on Jan 1st but it's there if you wanna play with it open to any ideas / feedback however mean or nice it may be :)

Mocked▲14Hi HN, I launched an AI tool a few months back to help with product management interviews. It's Leetcode-style prep, but you can verbally respond to questions and receive feedback. I originally started it as a side project, but it blew up on Linkedin and we're nearing 5-figure ARR. I would be grateful for some honest feedback and advice on both the growth and engineering side. I'm particularly interested in: - What's one feature you feel is glaringly missing? - How did similar educational consumer apps (7sage, Leetcode) scale beyond just ads? - Should I implement a landing page? I wanted to…

Hey HN. We're Mus and Isaac - creators of LightLayer. We've been outputting a ton more code since using agentic dev tools. It's been great. But we're starting to see a new bottleneck emerge that's no longer writing the actual code: reviewing code. We’d love to hear from folks here if they’re feeling the inertia of code reviews a lot more these days with the surge in development velocity. For us, it was the reason we decided to pivot what we were working on before, and go full-time on building a workspace aimed at bringing the code review experience up to speed for the AI era. To be clear:…

Hey HN — we’re University of Waterloo grads, and we’re building LeetPro (https://tryleetpro.com). LeetPro is Leetcode but for soft skill-based questions and cases. In other words a platform designed to help you nail behavioral, product, and case-based interviews just like Leetcode does for technical interviews. We’re combining AI-driven mock interviews with community-driven content to create a comprehensive preparation tool for systems design, product, and business interviews. We came up with this idea just last week, and we've already launched an MVP that’s worth checking out if…

I was frustated by having to draw system design diagrams by hand when discussing it with my team mates or in an interview. So I thought "Wouldn't it be great if someone draws it for me, while I think out loud?". That is when I came up with VoiceDraw. You can just think out loud or discuss your system architecture with a friend/interviewer, the diagrams are automatically drawn along with your reasoning, open questions and tradeoffs beautifully written on to the side.
