Is there an alternative to Discovery Programs?

Hello Open edX community,

I am currently using or evaluating the Programs feature from Open edX Discovery:

I would like to know whether anyone in the community has created an alternative approach for grouping multiple courses into a program or learning path.

For example:

  • A Learning Paths plugin
  • A Django/Open edX plugin for grouping courses
  • A custom MFE for displaying course paths
  • A Tutor plugin
  • A lightweight replacement for Discovery Programs
  • Any production implementation currently used by an Open edX provider

My main requirement is to group multiple courses into one structured program or learning path and show learners their progress across those courses.

Has anyone already implemented something similar?

If yes, could you please share:

  • The GitHub repository
  • Supported Open edX releases
  • Tutor installation instructions

Thank you.

From what I’ve seen, the official Programs feature depends on Discovery. I haven’t come across a built-in way in LMS/CMS alone to group multiple courses into a program and track learner progress across them.

If you find a good alternative, I’d be interested in learning about it as well.
