Description
For links to the Moodle Academy we need to improve, and find a way to maintain the metadata.
@jgramp has suggested that we should also add:
- Estimated completion time (e.g.
4 hours,2 days,1 week) - Level (Beginner to Advanced)
I wonder whether we can have this json generated on the Moodle Academy, with the above fields set as Course custom fields. If Academy can define these as custom fields, and then provide us with a PHP endpoint to generate the JSON content, then we can fetch this periodically (i.e. every sunday or on manual request) and commit it to the repository, and then use it during builds.

Research direction
The issue names no files or tests; start by inspecting how Moodle Academy links and metadata are currently represented in the devdocs repository. Clarify whether Academy can expose the requested custom fields through a PHP endpoint, then define how JSON is fetched and committed for scheduled or manual builds; done means the metadata source and maintenance workflow are agreed and implemented.
