CNCF / Self-built LMS

I built my own learning platform for the CNCF path.

Nine CNCF associate certs earned the hard way — now grinding the hands-on tier. So I built the tool I wanted: interactive flashcards, typed command drills, concept quizzes, and timed hands-on task playbooks, one module per certification. Supabase-backed curriculum, native to this site, progress saved in your browser.
