System Design Case is a two-column case study split. The left column carries the narrative: a project title, a one line subhead, an intro paragraph framing the problem, three numbered architecture decisions with the reasoning behind each, and a three-up row of outcome metrics. The right column is a static blueprint panel with a tab bar, the ingest path traced node by node with connector lines, and a separate read path row joined by an arrow.
Decisions and ingestPath are typed arrays, so the diagram and the numbered list both grow from data rather than markup. The panel is a blueprint only: no portal, no animation, and theme tokens throughout (bg-muted with text-foreground), which keeps it rendering cleanly inside the preview frame. Each node pairs a mono name with a short note, so the diagram reads without a legend.
Reach for this block when a developer portfolio needs to show depth on one system rather than breadth across many. It suits backend and infrastructure engineers whose best work is an architecture decision a screenshot cannot convey. The installer replaces the decisions, the outcome metrics, and the two diagram paths with their own system.

Tip: keep the outcome metrics to three numbers a reader can hold at once; a wall of stats dilutes the one figure that actually proves the design worked.
