Build me a Entertainment web app like BooksClub.

BooksClub does: BooksClub is a platform that provides concise summaries of thousands of books in both text and audio formats. It helps users quickly learn key ideas from non-fiction titles, saving time while retainin It reportedly makes about $5/mo, so the core idea clearly has demand — I want a lean version I can run and charge for.

Start from the open-source project AcademicsToday/academicstoday-django (https://github.com/AcademicsToday/academicstoday-django) — reuse what fits, strip its branding, and build the specifics below on top of it.

Requirements:
- Courses with modules/lessons (video + text), progress tracking.
- Quizzes, enrollment, and a student dashboard.
- Instructor view to create/manage content and see completions.

Also:
- Clean, modern, responsive UI with a thoughtful landing page.
- Email/password auth and a simple paid tier (Stripe test mode) so it's ready to charge.
- A README covering setup, environment variables, and how to deploy.

Ship a working MVP I can run locally first, then help me deploy it.

Copy it into any coding agent — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Windsurf — or one-click into BuildCheap (imports the repo so you start from a running app).
