Project Name & Outcome | Project Rating and Length | What this project is about | REQUIRED skills | Selected Student | Primary Mentor | Backup Mentor |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
O3: User Onboarding | Medium | Implement User Onboarding in the Test 3 and O3 demo environments, like these designs show. Introduce users to major features in a typical generic outpatient workflow. | React | |||
O3: Draw on a Body Diagram | Medium | Detailed community discussion thread: https://talk.openmrs.org/t/o3-feature-draw-on-a-body-diagram/37513 Scope TBD. UI for a diagram (ideally where any diagram can be uploaded). Unclear whether scope should be for clicking vs drawing. | React | |||
O3: Print feature | Medium | "Print this" component in O3 that can be used/configured depending on what the user wants to print. E.g. med list, recent labs, etc. Will need to do review of what people are printing / where in EMR they need/have the print button these days. Some implementers need specific areas of the chart to have a print option; others use general record printouts, e.g. a summary the patient can take with them to other locations in lieu of a digital medical record integration. | React | |||
O3: Search Patient Chart feature | Challenging | E.g. search all of a particular patient chart for an item of interest, e.g. "IUD" or "COVID", to find if that term/situation has ever come up for this patient. We can likely leverage this past work: https://github.com/openmrs/openmrs-module-chartsearch | TBC | |||
Responsiveness & Tablet-based Needs for OpenMRS 3 Priority frontend UX changes to improve responsiveness | Medium 175 hours | We have a ton of designs for 3.x that show how the frontend UX should change based on screen size or device (e.g. large desktop, small laptop, or tablet). Much of this responsiveness still needs to be implemented consistently throughout the application. Watch this video for more information. | React Javascript Typescript | |||
Migrating from OpenMRS ID to KeyCloak
| Medium 175 hours | Our current ID system is beyond its end of life and unstable. This leads to significant interruptions for OpenMRS projects prioritized by users. A new OpenMRS ID system will reduce service interruptions, reduce infrastructure volunteer workload, and eliminate security vulnerabilities. We would like the user 'handle' to be shared across Jira, Confluence and Discourse. The new ID system should either be free for open source projects, or extremely cost-effective for the amount of users we have. We are open to hosting open source tools, using cloud projects, or using Atlassian ID directly as OpenID or similar. | DevOps Authentication and SSO IT Strategy | Cintia | Burke | |
Next Generation Implementer Tools for OpenMRS 3 Redesigned config tools for O3 | Advanced 350 hours | Non-tech users can set up a 3.x EMR in a friendly, no-code UI, similar to designing a website. Empowers local team members to set up and config their EMR themselves. More detailed user stories and requirements documented here. Project plan documented here. Scope: technical work on the redesigned config tools for O3. *Design is done because Ampath/@jdick graciously contributed designs and user testing, sample designs, and @bistenes gave a lot of architectural and technical input but then had to set the project aside. | React Javascript Typescript | |||
GSoC 2022: Improving the OpenMRS Developer Experience: Updating the SDK | Advanced 350 hours | It's time to clean up our SDK and improve the developer experience. | Java | Daniel | Ian | |
