Implementation Details

VVIT LearnSpace is built using the MERN (MongoDB, Express.js, React.js, Node.js) stack, providing a robust and scalable foundation. Secure file storage is handled using AWS S3 (Simple Storage Service), ensuring the safety and accessibility of uploaded resource files. The platform is integrated with various AWS services, such as EC2, Lambda, IAM, CloudFront, and Route 53, for seamless deployment, content delivery, and user authentication.

We follow an agile development approach, continuously incorporating feedback from users to improve the platform's features and usability. DevOps services, including AWS CodePipeline, CodeBuild, CodeDeploy, and Elastic Beanstalk, are utilized for efficient CI/CD pipeline, automated deployment, and infrastructure management.

User Experience and Interface

VVIT LearnSpace offers a user-friendly web interface built with React.js and Tailwind CSS. The platform incorporates an efficient search functionality that allows students to search for resources based on keywords, subjects, or course names. User profiles showcase uploaded resources, ratings, and contributions, promoting collaboration and knowledge sharing among students.
