Description

Description

Currently, we have a set of useful utility functions being used in both the Learner Dashboard MFE and the Catalog MFE. It would be good to consider moving these functions into the frontend-platform repository so they can be reused across MFEs.

[!NOTE]
At the time of creating this issue, the example usage of these functions in frontend-app-catalog is located in the RaccoonGang fork of the repository, but this code will be merged into the upstream repository’s master branch.

Research direction

Start by comparing the utility usage in frontend-app-learner-dashboard's src/data/services/lms/urls.js and frontend-app-catalog's src/utils.ts. Identify which functions are shared, then inspect frontend-platform's existing structure and conventions for exposing reusable utilities. Done means the shared functions are available from frontend-platform for reuse across the MFEs.
