esdiseño: The Design Curriculum Map

A learning platform that structures a designer's education as a curriculum map you can walk through: four eras, twenty-two courses, sixty-six classes and seven professional roles you can branch into. Instead of a list of loose courses, the map shows where each thing comes from and where it leads.

The architecture decision behind it is that the app works fully without an account. All the content and navigation run in guest mode, saving progress in the browser itself; the database only adds accounts and progress synced across devices. If the backend goes down or someone does not want to sign up, the platform stays usable instead of showing an error screen.

What the prototype already shows, and it is no small thing: each course has its learning path with a free intro class and the rest unlockable for CLP 24,990, with certification in some and links to the real tool being taught (AutoCAD, Fusion 360). And the seven exit roles are not labels: each one declares which skills feed it and its reference salary in Chile, from CLP 700 thousand to 4 million a month depending on the role. That turns the map into something you can use to decide, not just to look at.

What is missing is not technical: it is the class content, recording the intro videos, connecting the custom domain and account login. The platform itself states its roadmap in three phases (the browsable map, the course platform, and data and community) and today it is in the first.
