Metalearn
Metalearn is an ecosystem I designed to explore a simple idea:
What if learning platforms were not closed silos, but digital commons?
This project was born from frustration around data centralization, vendor lock-in and opaque educational systems.
Vision
Metalearn is built on three core principles:
- Data sovereignty
- Open-source software
- Controlled infrastructure
The goal is not speed, but resilience and system understanding.
What I built
For Metalearn, I designed and implemented:
- An architecture based on open-source building blocks (Nextcloud, Matrix, Workadventure)
- Unified SSO via Keycloak (OpenID Connect)
- Custom APIs in PHP and Node.js
- GitLab CI/CD pipelines
- Multi-stage Docker images
- Kubernetes deployments using Helm
I personally manage the full infrastructure and automation.
Technical topics explored
- Reproducible deployments
- GitOps and advanced CI/CD
- Cluster resilience
- Observability
- Heterogeneous multi-node setups
Metalearn is not a product.
It is an experimental environment.
A place to learn differently — and to build cleanly.
