I’m launching an online hub focused exclusively on professional development courses and need a well-structured website that handles the entire learner journey—from account creation to secure checkout. The build must be robust enough to scale as new courses are added yet intuitive enough that a first-time visitor understands exactly where to begin. Core functionality to be delivered: • User registration & login with email verification and password-reset flow • searchable, filterable Course catalog that supports categories, tags, and rich media previews • seamless Payment integration (credit card plus at least one popular digital wallet) with automated enrolment on successful purchase Each module should be responsive, load quickly, and follow basic WCAG accessibility guidelines. I’m happy to hear your preferred stack—Laravel, Django, MERN, or another modern framework—so long as it remains maintainable and secure. Acceptance criteria will include a staging link for interim reviews, clean code in a version-controlled repo, and a brief hand-over guide covering deployment and routine content updates. If you have experience building course platforms or membership sites, this project should feel familiar; feel free to point me to a couple of live examples when you respond.
