Have you looked at https://github.com/edx/edx-platform ? It's one platform that's established and open source. It might not be lightweight enough for your needs though.

There is a lot of untapped potential here. I was close to early enterprise adopters of Articulate which was a much more limited product in the mid-2000s. Pharma had HQ training (yearly compliance plus some specialist courses), but field sal

I'm curious how they discover this if they are trying to stay so distant from US authorities. If you have EU citizenship which is what I assume here then presenting the Greek passport and supporting local documents isn't enough? O

I think people gravitate to it because "kernel" feels like a cool word and some people have heard of OS microkernels being modular. As you say, "modular architecture" is a much clearer way to express the intent and conve

It's not that we didn't have APIs, but it's the reality that they have penetrated every sector beyond early-to-medium adopters. Even regulated companies are moving to the cloud and using public web services at this point. Ten

The right answer here is probably that there are some apps which have a no backend, or a limited one, where the possibility of handling dangerous input exists and this provides a standard solution. Further, it's not a panacea. Defense-

Microscopic cost optimization is frequently not a problem, but it's great if you can get it for low effort with Go. It's highly contextual whether it'll matter that much in both the short and long-term. You're situation
