Build a responsive card grid from a REST API with distinct loading, empty, and error states. Cover typed boundaries, currency formatting, reusable components, caching, and safe filtered requests.
Fetch records from a REST API and render them as a responsive card grid. Handle loading and error states and format monetary values correctly. Explain improvements for component reuse, caching, filters, and strong typing.
### Clarifying Questions
Define the API schema, currency and amount units, pagination, and whether filtering is local or server-side. None is specified. For a baseline, choose records with a stable ID, title, and a price represented by an integer minor-unit amount plus a currency code; verify the currency's minor-unit convention instead of assuming every currency has two decimals.
### What a Strong Answer Covers
A complete request lifecycle, runtime validation as well as static types, accessible reusable cards, responsive layout, correct currency formatting, and stale-request protection. Explain cache keys and invalidation when filters change.
### Follow-up Questions
- How does an empty successful response differ from a failed request?
- What happens when a slower old request returns after a newer filtered request?
