Mentor-Created Education Resources Website

I’m building a web platform that delivers high-quality learning material written exclusively by our mentors. The entire site revolves around written articles—no videos or quizzes for this phase—so every page should prioritise a clean, distraction-free reading experience.

Here’s what I need:

• A modern, responsive design that makes long-form text easy to read on any device.
• A role-based CMS where mentors can log in, draft, edit, and publish their own articles while I retain final approval.
• Student accounts with the ability to browse, search, bookmark, and comment on articles (but not edit).
• Fast, faceted search and subject tagging so students can pinpoint exactly what they need in seconds.
• Basic analytics—views, reading time, and likes—visible to mentors so they can refine future pieces.
• Mobile-first performance, accessibility that meets WCAG 2.1 AA, and secure deployment with SSL.
• Hosting on AWS, DigitalOcean, or a comparable cloud service with automated backups and straightforward scaling.

Acceptance criteria
1. Live, SSL-secured site that passes Google Lighthouse mobile performance ≥90.
2. Mentor role can create, update, submit, and track article stats without admin help.
3. Student role can read, bookmark, and comment; all content is searchable within 300 ms across a 1,000-article dataset.
4. Admin dashboard allows article approval, featuring, and archiving in one click.
