LCAMP Skill Framework Builder

The LCAMP Skill Framework Builder is a full-stack platform for creating, managing, and exporting machine-readable skill frameworks — developed within the LCAMP project.

It helps educational institutions align curricula with industry skill demands, HR teams build structured skill taxonomies, and policy makers standardise skill definitions across sectors.

Features

• Modular skill taxonomies with categories, proficiency levels, and ESCO mapping
• Semantic skill search powered by vector embeddings
• AI-powered CV analysis and skill profiling
• Learner portal with dashboard, radar charts, and job profile matching
• Qualification and job profile builders
• CASE 1.1 export for interoperability with other skills systems
• Multilingual support built on the ESCO classification

• Frontend: React 18 + Vite
• Backend: FastAPI, SQLAlchemy, Alembic migrations
• Database: PostgreSQL with pgvector (semantic search) and pgai (automatic embedding generation via Mistral)
• Auth: Auth0

Quick Start

Prerequisites: Docker + Docker Compose, a PostgreSQL 15+ database with the pgvector and pgai extensions, a Mistral API key, and an Auth0 tenant.

# 1. Configure environment
#    Create a .env file in the project root — see docker-compose.yml
#    for the full list of required variables (database, Auth0, Mistral).

# 2. Build and run
docker-compose up -d --build

This starts the FastAPI backend (migrations run automatically), the embedding vectorizer worker, and the React frontend. API documentation is available at the backend's /docs endpoint.
