📜 The Archives (Courses)

The Archives are your interactive knowledge library on Skillwaker. Browse a hierarchical catalog of structured courses — from Categories down to Chapters — and progress at your own pace with a built-in player designed to maximize your retention.

01

Overview

Your knowledge library

The Archives gather all the educational content available on Skillwaker. This is where you will find all the courses, organized hierarchically: Categories > Topics > Modules > Chapters. Each level brings you closer to a concrete and immediately applicable skill.

📜
In technical terms: The Archives correspond to the Course Library of an LMS (Learning Management System). The content is structured in a four-level taxonomy — Category, Topic, Module, and Chapter — to allow precise navigation and structured progression.
📚 Complete Catalog

Access all disciplines available on the platform, filterable by your interests.

🔍 Instant Search

Find any module or chapter with a few keystrokes using global search.

📖 Built-in Player

Read directly in the app, track your progress, and mark each completed chapter.

Whether you're looking to acquire new skills or consolidate existing ones, the Archives are the starting point for your theoretical learning — before tackling the Raid Portals to test your knowledge in real conditions.

02

How to access

Open the doors of knowledge in 3 seconds

Access to the Archives is directly available from the application's main navigation, always visible regardless of the screen you are on.

1
Locate the navigation dock

On desktop, the dock is displayed vertically on the left of the screen. On mobile, it appears as a tab bar at the bottom.

Click on the Archives icon

Look for the scroll icon (📜). A single click instantly transports you to your course library.

3
Choose your discipline

The discipline tabs at the top of the catalog allow you to instantly filter content based on your active fields of interest.

Quick Access: If you're looking at your Sanctuary, you can access the Archives directly by clicking on a recommended module in your dashboard, which takes you right to the correct chapter.
04

The Catalog (Accordion)

Optimized hierarchical navigation

The Archives catalog uses a dynamic accordion system to efficiently organize the vast amount of available knowledge. Each level opens progressively, from general to specific, guiding your navigation without cognitive overload.

Level Description Interaction
📂 Category The broad discipline (e.g., Marketing, IT, Management) Filtered via tabs and the "Manage my disciplines" button
📁 Topic The field of expertise (e.g., SEO, Web Dev, Cloud) Click to expand and reveal available modules
📄 Module The full course on a specific topic Shows the detail card with description, level, and duration
📖 Chapter The individual learning unit (20–30 min reading) Launches the Built-in Player directly in the page
💡
Efficient Navigation: Instead of opening all accordions, use the search bar at the top of the page. Type a keyword (e.g., "Flexbox", "AWS S3") to instantly jump to the right chapter.
05

Pro Tips & Advice

Maximize your learning

🔍
Search is your friend: Rather than unrolling accordions one by one, directly type a keyword in the search bar (e.g., "Flexbox", "AWS IAM"). Results appear instantly, filtered by module and chapter.
🎯
Manage your disciplines: Don't hesitate to use the "Manage my disciplines" button to hide categories you don't care about. A clean catalog helps you stay focused on your priority paths.
⚔️
From course to combat: Once you finish a chapter, immediately put your knowledge to the test in the Raid Portals. Active practice right after reading triples long-term retention.
🗺️
Follow a thematic path: Instead of random browsing, pick an entire Topic and progress chapter by chapter in order. Your XP progression and mastery badges will build up much more consistently.

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers

How do I access the Archives on Skillwaker?

The Archives are accessible from the main navigation dock — on the left of the screen for desktop, in the bottom tab bar for mobile — via the scroll icon (📜). A simple click opens your course library.

How do I filter courses in the Skillwaker Archives?

You have three ways: (1) use the discipline tabs at the top to only show one major category; (2) click on "Manage my disciplines" to toggle entire categories on or off; (3) type a keyword in the search bar for instant navigation.

What do the stats at the top of the Archives mean?

The header displays two key metrics: the total number of courses available in your catalog (scroll icon 📜) and the number of successfully completed modules (checkmark icon ✅ — gold for excellence). These numbers update in real-time as you progress.

What is the difference between a Module and a Chapter in the Archives?

A Module is a full course on a specific topic (e.g., "Introduction to Technical SEO"). It is subdivided into several Chapters, each representing a self-contained learning unit of 20 to 30 minutes. The Chapter level is where you actually read the content and track your progress.

How do I mark a chapter as completed in the Archives?

Once you finish reading in the Built-in Player, click the "Complete" button (gold CTA at the bottom). Your progress is recorded instantly: XP is credited to your account, and the chapter appears as completed in the catalog. This click also updates your progress in the parent module.

Can I access the Archives offline on Skillwaker?

No, the Archives require an active Internet connection because educational content is loaded dynamically from our servers. This ensures you always have access to the latest version of courses, including updates and fixes. An offline mode is not currently available.
