This project is a comprehensive e-learning platform designed for an academic institution, specializing in online courses and video-based learning. Built using Laravel, the platform offers a seamless educational experience with a wide array of features for both students and instructors.

Key Features:

1. Course Management and Video Content: The platform allows instructors to create and manage courses with pre-recorded video lessons. Each course includes detailed descriptions, lesson plans, and downloadable materials, creating an engaging learning environment. Video hosting and streaming are integrated with Vimeo to ensure high-quality, secure video content delivery.

2. Integration with Zoom for Live Classes: To support live online classes, I integrated Zoom into the platform. Instructors can schedule live sessions, and students can join directly through the platform. The integration with Zoom API allows automatic session creation, notifications, and tracking attendance, making live class management seamless.

3. Multiple Payment Gateways: The website supports five payment gateways to cater to a global audience, offering students the flexibility to pay using their preferred method. Integrated gateways include:

   • PayTab
   • Payfort
   • Moyaser
   • Alrajhi
   • Tap

   Each gateway is integrated with comprehensive API handling for payment processing, refunds, and transaction tracking.

4. Amazon Web Services (AWS) Integration: To ensure scalability and data security, I used AWS services for storing course materials and media files. Files are uploaded to Amazon S3, leveraging its storage capabilities and data encryption. This ensures fast, reliable access to materials for students.

5. Custom API Development: I built a RESTful API for each core feature, enabling flexibility and potential expansion to mobile applications. The APIs support:

   • User authentication and registration
   • Course enrollment and progress tracking
   • Payment processing for multiple gateways
   • Video streaming and live session access
   • Notifications and messaging between students and instructors

6. Admin Panel: I developed a powerful admin panel that allows administrators to manage all aspects of the platform. Admins can oversee course creation, monitor enrollments, view payment transactions, handle refunds, and manage users. The panel includes dashboards with analytics on student activity, revenue, and course performance.

7. User Roles and Permissions: The platform includes a robust role-based access control system, allowing different permissions for students, instructors, and administrators. This ensures data security and allows for personalized dashboards and access levels for each user type.

8. Responsive Design and SEO Optimization: The platform is fully responsive, providing a user-friendly experience across all devices. It is also optimized for search engines, helping attract more organic traffic and improving visibility.

9. Unit testing: To ensure the platform's reliability, I implemented unit testing throughout the development process. Using Laravel’s built-in testing tools, I wrote tests for critical features like user registration, course enrollment, payment processing, and API responses. These tests verify that core functionalities work as expected and help prevent potential issues when making updates or adding new features

This e-learning platform showcases my expertise in building a full-featured online education solution with Laravel, integrating multiple services and APIs to provide a smooth user experience. The result is a scalable, secure, and engaging platform that supports the institution's online education goals and enhances accessibility for students worldwide.
