I’m creating online courses that rely on custom JavaScript applications for interactive learning. Most major platforms seem to have a ‘no coding’ philosophy, which limits what I can do. Does anyone know of a platform that gives you control to insert custom JS without much hassle? I’m trying to avoid building my own platform because I don’t want to deal with the tax stuff when selling worldwide.
You might want to check out Thinkific or Teachable. While they have some limitations on custom code, Thinkific has a ‘Power Editor’ feature that may let you insert custom HTML/JS in certain areas of your course. It’s not full control, but it could work depending on what you need.
If you need more flexibility, you could try Kajabi. They allow some level of customization with HTML and JS, but it’s still a bit limited. If you want complete control, you might be looking at custom-built solutions or more niche platforms.
Udemy and Coursera won’t give you the JS freedom you’re looking for, but have you considered LearnDash on WordPress? You can fully customize your course with JS, and plugins like WooCommerce can handle tax-related stuff for selling globally.
What you’re describing sounds like you might need a more developer-friendly solution like Podia, which supports custom code to some extent. Still, you may need to look at something self-hosted with plugins for tax automation if you want total control.
