SMIT Learning Management System (LMS Portal)
The SMIT Portal is the learning platform behind Saylani Mass IT Training - 500,000+ students, 20,000+ active users, and three role-based portals plus a companion mobile app.
Students join Zoom-integrated live classes, submit assignments, and check results. Trainers run schedules, attendance, and grading. Admins control course catalogs, batches, and reporting. Underneath: a full-stack Node.js/Express API on MongoDB, AWS Lambda cron jobs automating attendance rollups and result publishing, and CI/CD pipelines that keep deploys uneventful at nationwide scale.

The Challenge
Run Pakistan's largest IT training program on one platform - and survive enrollment day. Tens of thousands of students hit the system at once when batches open and results drop, live classes have to actually start on time, and three completely different user types (students, trainers, admins) need their own workflows from a single codebase.
The Solution
A full-stack platform built for burst traffic: MongoDB schemas and Express APIs shaped for read-heavy load, Zoom API integration so live classes and attendance run as one flow, and AWS Lambda functions on scheduled cron jobs moving attendance rollups, result publishing, and notifications off the request path. Automated CI/CD pipelines ship it safely, and the React/Redux frontend stays fast on the low-end Android devices most students actually use.
What It Does
- Three role-based portals: student, trainer, and admin - on one codebase
- Zoom API integration for live class delivery and session management
- Attendance capture tied to each live session, with daily status reporting
- AWS Lambda cron jobs automating result publishing and notifications
- Assignment submission, grading, and result workflows
- Course catalog, batch enrollment, and trainer assignment management
- Automated CI/CD pipelines for zero-drama deployments
- Companion mobile app plus a centralized admin panel with reporting
The Impact
A production system serving 500,000+ students and 20,000+ active users nationwide - holding up through enrollment spikes and result-day traffic. Live classes, attendance, grading, and academic operations run in one platform instead of scattered across tools, with recurring work handled automatically on schedule rather than by hand.
