Modular Learning Management System Development

This Learning Management System (LMS) was reverse-engineered and redesigned to provide a seamless platform for managing online learning activities. Built with Laravel and styled using Tailwind CSS, the system enables efficient handling of course creation, student enrollment, and progress tracking, ensuring an organized and scalable digital education experience.

The application is designed for administrators, instructors, and students, offering tailored dashboards that simplify management and learning operations. By containerizing the application with Docker, the system achieves consistency across development and deployment environments.

Most traditional LMS platforms are either overly complex or lack flexibility in customization and deployment. The main challenges addressed in this project included:

Simplifying course and student management for instructors and administrators.

Ensuring smooth environment setup and scalability using Docker.

The goal was to reverse-engineer an existing concept into a more maintainable, modular, and modern system optimized for both usability and performance.

The system was restructured to improve usability, security, and modularity.

Instructors can create, update, and organize courses with details such as course title, description, and assigned modules.

Admins can manage all courses globally, including the ability to approve or deactivate them.

Students can enroll in courses, view progress, and track completion status.

Instructors and admins can monitor student activity, including participation rates and assessment results.

Automated status updates indicate progress (e.g., In Progress, Completed, Not Started).

The system supports role-based access control, giving instructors the ability to manage only their assigned courses and students.

Each instructor dashboard provides quick access to course stats and student feedback.

Built with Tailwind CSS, providing a clean and intuitive design that adapts seamlessly across devices.

Emphasis on accessibility and ease of navigation for all user roles.

Implemented Docker for environment consistency and easy deployment.

Each service (Laravel, MySQL) runs in isolated containers, reducing configuration conflicts and improving maintainability.

Backend: Laravel (PHP)

Database: MySQL

Styling: Tailwind CSS
