Slider for content selection in user interface

A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing executable computer program code that, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to perform operations comprising:

• receiving, from a client device, a request for a user interface that includes a feed of content items associated with a topic;
• identifying a first attribute value in a range of attribute values;
• selecting a first subset of content items from a set of content items associated with the topic based on the first attribute value, each content item in the first subset of content items having an attribute value in the range of attribute values;
• sending the first subset of selected content items to the client device for display in a feed of a user interface, the user interface including a slider on a scale, wherein the scale represents the range of attribute values and a location of the slider on the scale indicates the first attribute value;
• receiving, from the client device, a user-selected second attribute value, wherein a user selects the user-selected second attribute value by interacting with the slider on the scale;
• responsive to receiving the user-selected second attribute value, selecting a second subset of content items from the set of content items associated with the topic based on the user-selected second attribute value, each content item in the second subset of content items having an attribute value in the range of attribute values;
• and
• sending the second subset of selected content items to the client device for display in the feed of the user interface, wherein the location of the slider on the scale is updated to indicate the user-selected second attribute value.
