🩺 Healify

Healify is a specialised mobile application developed to assist patients with kidney disease in monitoring their health. Created as a final-year university group project, the app provides a reliable tool for calculating eGFR (estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate) and offers an educational resource for patients to better understand their condition.

👥 Collaborative Development

This project was developed in a cross-functional team, simulating a real-world software engineering environment. The team consisted of:

• Developers (Technical implementation and logic)
• Designers (UI/UX and prototyping)
• Testers (Quality assurance and bug tracking)
• Project Manager (Sprint planning and delivery)

We utilised Jira for agile task management, Figma for high-fidelity designs, and GitHub for version control and collaborative coding.

💻 Technologies

• React Native (Cross-platform Mobile UI)
• Firebase (Database & Authentication)
• JavaScript (Application Logic)
• Figma (UI/UX Design)
• Jira (Agile Project Management)

✨ Features

• eGFR Calculator: A precise tool allowing patients to input their medical data and calculate their estimated Glomerular Filtration Rate to monitor kidney function.
• Educational Hub: A curated library of information where users can read about kidney disease, treatment options, and lifestyle management.
• User Profiles: Secure account creation via Firebase to store and track health data over time.
• Intuitive UI: A clean, accessible interface designed specifically for patients managing chronic illness, focused on readability and ease of use.

📁 The Process

The development of Healify focused on accuracy and accessibility. As a developer on the team, I worked closely with the design team to translate Figma prototypes into functional React Native components.

We followed an Agile methodology, using Jira to manage our backlogs and sprints. The core technical challenge was ensuring the eGFR calculation logic was medically accurate and that the Firebase integration provided a seamless, real-time experience for the user. Working alongside dedicated testers allowed us to identify edge cases in the calculation inputs, ensuring the app was safe and reliable for patient use.
