Background

Career Heights CMS dashboard

Career Heights, a coaching institute based in Kerala, India had built their website using Framer to create a modern and visually engaging digital presence. However, as their student success stories grew, they needed a scalable way to manage and showcase placement results and winners dynamically. Their existing workflow required manual updates for every new entry, which was time-consuming and inefficient. To support their growth and improve operational efficiency, they required a backend-driven CMS solution that could seamlessly integrate with their existing Framer website.
