Build an Online Learning Platform Like Udemy

Create a course marketplace where instructors upload courses, and students can enroll, watch videos, and track learning progress — complete with authentication and payment support.

Why Build an Online Learning Platform?

E-learning is booming! Building an online learning platform teaches you real-world project skills like multi-role access control (instructor/student), video uploads/streaming, progress tracking, and payment gateway integrations.

Core Features of the Learning Platform

Allow instructors to create and manage courses with videos and materials. Students should be able to browse, purchase, and learn from enrolled courses at their own pace.

Key Features to Implement

Student Registration and Learning Dashboard

Students sign up, enroll in courses, watch videos, complete lectures, and track their learning progress.

Instructor Portal

Instructors can create courses with titles, descriptions, video uploads, and pricing.

Course Purchase and Payment

Integrate a payment gateway (Stripe or PayPal) to allow students to purchase paid courses securely.

Ratings and Reviews System

Students can rate courses and leave feedback after completion to help other learners choose wisely.

How the Learning Platform Works

Instructors upload structured courses. Students browse or search courses, enroll, pay (if required), and start learning via a video player with progress tracking. Reviews enhance course credibility.

  • Students browse available courses by category, skill level, or price.
  • Students enroll via one-click enroll (free) or after payment (paid courses).
  • Each course includes video lectures, PDFs, quizzes (optional).
  • Progress is tracked per lecture completed.
  • Ratings and feedback collected to improve course quality.
