About the Client
The organization is an innovative player in the eLearning sector, delivering interactive educational content to institutions and learners. With a growing user base and evolving content demands, the company sought to modernize its content creation platform to support more advanced editing, mathematical content, and scalable book management.
Business Impact
Upgrading the content editor significantly improved productivity for content teams, enhanced the learner experience with responsive and interactive features, and enabled scalability for future tools and modules. These improvements led to faster content creation cycles and reduced technical bottlenecks.
The Challenge
The digital publishing solutions provider’s existing Basic Editor was holding back both the technical and functional growth of their platform. It lacked component flexibility, responsive behavior, and mathematical tooling. Additionally, issues in bulk editing and book category creation slowed down content operations.
“We were stuck with a static, rigid editor that couldn’t grow with our platform’s needs. Adding math features or editing multiple activities was nearly impossible.”
— Product Head, EdTech Firm
Our Approach
We focused on architectural refactoring, modular enhancements, and seamless tool integrations to create a robust, scalable, and user-friendly editing experience. By prioritizing usability for both developers and content creators, we aligned technical upgrades with business outcomes.
Why AngularJS and Java?
- AngularJS provided dynamic two-way data binding and component reusability, which accelerated UI enhancements.
- Java ensured backend robustness, supporting middleware for bulk operations and clean integration with external APIs.
- Third-party tools like Desmos and Speech Recognition API delivered math plotting and accessibility features effortlessly.
Key Initiatives
- Built a new inline editor supporting speech input, math equations, and full content formatting
- Refactored legacy codebase for modularity and maintainability
- Integrated Desmos for mathematical graphs and algebraic inputs
- Re-engineered responsiveness for iFrames, annotations, and search
- Developed middleware for bulk activity editing
- Enabled structured book creation with category support
The Solution
We replaced the Basic Editor with a modular, inline editor that allows users to edit all components seamlessly, including complex mathematical elements. With speech recognition, real-time formatting, and an upgraded UI, content authors gained full control over their workflows. The new structure supports scalable book creation and editing, making content management more efficient than ever.
