Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

The pull request adds and exports a SystemDesignWhiteboard React page. The page renders a full-screen layout with a heading and a placeholder for a future Excalidraw or tldraw canvas.

Changes

System Design Whiteboard

Layer / File(s) Summary
Whiteboard page placeholder
frontend/src/pages/InterviewPrep/SystemDesignWhiteboard.jsx
Adds the SystemDesignWhiteboard component with a full-screen container, heading, and placeholder canvas message. Exports the component as the default module export.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~2 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 1a07b

The new whiteboard page is currently unreachable because it lacks an application route and navigation entry. Add those integrations before merging so users can access the feature.

Register SystemDesignWhiteboard in the route and navigation trees.

SystemDesignWhiteboard is not imported or mounted in frontend/src/App.jsx, and no navigation item references it. Add a protected route and a navigation entry so users can reach the page.

@anshika1179 Could you please integrate SystemDesignWhiteboard.jsx with the existing frontend? Currently, the component appears to be added but I couldn't find where it is imported/rendered or exposed through the application's routing/UI. Please add the required integration so the feature is actually accessible from the application
