PNC CSIT — School Management System

Event-driven school management platform for Prithvi Narayan Campus, B.Sc. CSIT — role-based dashboards, real-time chat, background jobs, and an AWS ECS deployment with full CI/CD.

Overview

SMS is a school management system for Prithvi Narayan Campus, B.Sc. CSIT, built as a Turborepo monorepo with a NestJS 11 API, a Next.js 15 web app, and shared Zod schema packages. It follows an event-driven architecture: announcements, emails, and notifications flow through Redis-backed queues instead of blocking requests.

Features

Role-based access control for admin, teacher, and student workflows with refresh/access token recycling and Google OAuth. Cron jobs schedule announcements, BullMQ queues with Redis handle email processing, Socket.IO powers the real-time chat system, and S3 stores documents and images. Assignments are displayed on a Kanban board, and admins get a full dashboard for users, semesters, batches, subjects, and resources.

Infrastructure

The backend ships as a Docker image and is deployed on AWS ECS with a proper CI/CD pipeline via GitHub Actions — build, test, push, and deploy on every merge.
