This project is a full-stack Learning Management System (LMS) built entirely from scratch using modern web technologies. It demonstrates how to design and implement a production-ready course platform, covering everything from frontend user experience to backend architecture, security, payments, and deployment.

The application includes a public-facing course platform where users can browse available courses and view detailed course information. Administrators have access to a powerful admin dashboard that enables them to create and manage courses, organize lessons and chapters using drag-and-drop functionality, upload content, and monitor platform performance through analytics.

For learners, the system provides a feature-rich customer dashboard that allows users to enroll in courses, watch video lessons, read lesson descriptions, track progress, and mark lessons as completed. Progress is persisted and visualized to give users a clear understanding of their learning journey.

Overall, this project covers the entire full-stack development lifecycle, making it a comprehensive reference for building scalable, secure, and maintainable LMS platforms in real-world applications.
