Open Hospital (OH) is deployed as a desktop application that can be used in a standalone, single user mode (PORTABLE mode) or in a client / server network configuration (CLIENT mode), where multiple clients and users connect to the same database server. OH is developed in Java and it is based on open-source tools and libraries; it runs on any computer, requires low resources and is designed to work without an internet connection. For more information check the online documentation here.

Open Hospital is composed by the following components, hosted in separated repositories:

• OH Core, a library that contains the business logic and the data abstraction layer
• OH GUI, which provides a graphical user interface (GUI) made with Java Swing
• OH Doc, which contains the user and admin documentation in Asciidoc format
• OH API, a web server that exposes REST APIs over the Core component, and it's used by the UI component [WIP].
• OH UI, a web user interface that consists of a React SPA (single page application) [WIP]

There are several ways in which you can contribute to Open Hospital:

• try the desktop application or the early versions of the web UI
• request new features or report issues on JIRA (here's a list of good-first-issues)
• improve the documentation
• contribute code patches to one of the components
