I am facing a system architecture problem.

We are trying to build an e-learning system (where content eg text, video, audio, can be edited/added/reordered). No need to distinguish different teachers (all content is managed by a company, not individual persons) as this is a 2C app.

I am trying to do the architecture part. To manage the content, currently starting to looking some CMS system, eg contentful, strapi, prismic, etc.

Is there any better architecture choice for the learning content management? Maybe particularly oriented to this area? Would also consider any CMS or LMS if anybody can share your thought.

Much appreciate.

Answer 1

The big three LMS packages:

• Moodle Open Source, community driven
• Canvas Open Source, single company control
• Blackboard Private software and hosting.

If your goal is to provide learning modules use SCORM .

As an open standard, SCORM modules can be imported into any compatible LMS system and allows for grades to be returned to the host LMS.

---

If your goal is strictly read-only, with regard to users, ie no grades or completion notifications, any CMS will fulfill this goal.

If you want an out-of-the box solution, that you can modify to your needs, you should check out the LearnPress plugin for WordPress with the Eduma theme. You will get a very sophisticated platform to host and create online courses.
