+**Split-Screen Code Editor with Live Preview**
+- Functionality: Interactive code editor with live React component preview, resizable panels, and view mode switching (code-only, split, preview-only)
+- Purpose: Enable real-time testing and visualization of React code while editing
+- Trigger: Enable "Enable split-screen preview" checkbox when creating/editing JSX/TSX/JavaScript/TypeScript snippets
+- Progression: User enables preview → Split editor appears → User types code → Preview updates in real-time → User adjusts panel sizes or switches view modes → Saves snippet
+- Success criteria: Preview updates within 100ms of code changes, no lag during typing, error messages display clearly with AI help option
