Vinland Music
Educational Project | 2025
A music streaming and playlist web app built on a custom-written PHP MVC
framework - no Laravel, Symfony or other third-party framework used

Tech: PHP, MySQL, PDO, JavaScript, HTML5, CSS3, Apache

- Designed and built a custom PHP MVC framework from scratch: router, base
controller, generic CRUD model layer, singleton PDO database wrapper, session
manager, and a view renderer with output buffering
- Implemented PSR-0 namespace autoloading and a single-entry-point architecture
via Apache .htaccess URL rewriting
- Built core music app features: track catalog, persistent HTML5 audio player, MP3
upload with UUID-based filenames, personal playlists with custom cover images,
and recently-played list (localStorage)
- Designed a relational MySQL schema (users, songs, playlists, playlist_tracks) with
foreign-key relationships, accessed via PDO
- Wrote the entire frontend in vanilla JavaScript - no framework - to focus on core
language fundamentals
