The solution
I developed a Flask application backed by MySQL that supports student registration, record viewing, editing, searching, and dashboard reporting.
Project overview
From practical need to complete product.
The Student Management Portal provides a central interface for maintaining student records and viewing administrative information.

Responsive product view
One interface, every screen.
The same product is presented across desktop, tablet, and phone frames to show how the interface adapts—not just how it looks in one screenshot.
