MediConnect - Medical Data Exchange Platform

A universal platform for exchanging medical data between patients, doctors, and medical institutions, ensuring security and confidentiality of information.

Project Overview

MediConnect is a full-stack web application built with:

• Frontend: React with TypeScript
• Backend: Node.js/Express API
• Containerization: Docker and Docker Compose

Features

• Patient management dashboard
• Medical records viewing
• Secure data exchange simulation
• Responsive UI with modern design
• RESTful API with mock medical data

Quick Start with Docker

The application is already containerized and ready to run:

Prerequisites

• Docker and Docker Compose installed

Running the Application

1. Start the application (already running):

   docker-compose up -d

2. Check running containers:
