Frequently Asked Questions
EdTech development involves building educational technology: learning management systems (LMS), virtual classrooms, assessment platforms, content delivery systems, and adaptive learning. EdTech requires real-time features, content management, and progress tracking.
EdTech development typically costs $100-150 per hour. A basic LMS starts around $50,000-100,000, while thorough platforms with video, real-time collaboration, and adaptive learning range from $200,000-500,000+.
Core features: course management, video hosting/streaming, progress tracking, assessments/quizzes, certificates, and user management. Advanced features: live video classes, interactive whiteboards, adaptive learning, mobile apps, and analytics.
Do you work with video streaming for courses?
Yes. I implement: video hosting (AWS, Mux, Cloudflare Stream), adaptive bitrate streaming, DRM for content protection, resume playback, and bandwidth optimization. Video is often the most complex and expensive part of EdTech platforms.
How do you handle real-time features like live classes?
I implement: WebRTC for video/audio, WebSockets for chat and collaboration, and integration with services like Twilio, Daily.co, or Zoom SDK. Real-time requires careful architecture for reliability and scale.
