Xaverius Teacher LMS
Internal teacher competency development & mentoring platform
Role: Sole Full-Stack Developer (Contract)
The Problem & Context
The foundation managed teacher mentoring and evaluations across multiple schools through manual spreadsheets and uncoordinated email threads, causing lost evaluations and zero centralized progress tracking.
Key Deliverables & Built Features
- Role-based system tailored for 8 distinct user tiers (Admin, New Teachers, Mentors, Principals, Reviewers, etc.)
- End-to-end mentoring workflow: pairing assignments, milestone tracking, submission portals, and evaluation logbooks
- Token-based public certificate verification engine allowing instant external validation of foundation-issued credentials
- Principal and admin analytics dashboard summarizing competency growth and completion metrics across schools
Technical & Architectural Decisions
- Chose Next.js App Router with TypeScript for end-to-end type safety between server actions and complex UI forms
- Architected PostgreSQL database with Prisma ORM to enforce relational integrity across multi-tiered evaluation hierarchies
- Integrated lightweight Hono API endpoints to power fast, publicly accessible certificate verification routes
- Implemented shadcn/ui and TailwindCSS design system with strict accessibility and mobile responsiveness
