Pikuma: Thinkific Course Platform and Backend Setup

I handled the backend course platform setup for Pikuma, an online school teaching computer science and programming fundamentals through project based courses like game engine development, compiler design, and retro console programming. With a catalog of over a dozen paid courses, the priority was a clean, reliable backend that could handle course delivery, access control, and purchases at scale.

What I delivered:

Course catalog setup inside Thinkific, including course structure, pricing tiers, and content organization for 10+ technical courses

Checkout and payment configuration for individual course purchases

Access control and enrollment settings, including lifetime access delivery

Certificate of completion setup for each course

Discussion forum and community access configuration for enrolled students

Backend organization to support scaling the catalog as new courses are added
