Project overview
Skillsline, a leading educational initiative, partnered with Solvve to develop a web application designed to foster essential skills for long-term career success, such as communication, critical thinking, and adaptability. The platform needed to integrate with a partner site to seamlessly track and share students' progress. The primary challenge was to build a fully functional application within a constrained budget and tight project timeline while ensuring future scalability and functionality.
Solutions
To meet these requirements, the Solvve team proposed using a headless CMS to streamline backend development, enabling fast implementation without compromising flexibility. The chosen solution included STRAPI for backend management, which allowed for quick setup and cost reduction, and VueJS 3 for a custom frontend interface, offering options for future expansion.
Core Platform Features:
- Backend and Frontend Development: A robust backend based on STRAPI and an adaptive frontend using VueJS 3.
- Downloadable Content: Capability to upload ready-made courses in xAPI format, allowing flexibility in learning methods.
- Partner Site Integration: Integration with the American Student Assistance platform for real-time data exchange on student progress.
- User Behavior Tracking: Setup of Google Analytics 4 to monitor user behavior and gather data for continuous optimization.
Additionally, the Solvve team migrated the company’s website to a new Webflow CMS, introducing a modern design and expanding the site’s functionality. This allowed the new application to be showcased on a high-quality web resource, enhancing user appeal, improving mobile responsiveness, and fostering brand trust and project scalability, attracting new users and partners.
Features
- Scalable Backend: A STRAPI-based backend for efficient course and data management.
- Custom Frontend: VueJS 3 framework provides a flexible, adaptive interface that can expand with platform growth.
- Data Integration: Partner site integration for continuous progress tracking.
- User Analytics: Google Analytics 4 setup for insights into user behavior.
