PHP Learning Management System (LMS)

A feature-rich Learning Management System built with PHP, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Bootstrap, designed to facilitate seamless interaction between admins, teachers, students, and academic officers. This project was my introduction to web development, and while it functions effectively, some design improvements (e.g., using the Singleton pattern for database connections) can be incorporated in the future.

🏗️ Project Limitations

• This project was my initial venture into web development. While it performs its intended functions, there is room for improvement:
• The database connection does not use the Singleton pattern, which may lead to unnecessary resource consumption or connection issues in larger-scale implementations.
