Hospital Locator and Chatbot Web App

This project is a web application that combines a hospital locator and a chatbot powered by OpenAI's GPT API. The backend is implemented in Python using Flask, and the frontend is built using ReactJS with Tailwind CSS, Next.js, and TypeScript.

Technologies Used

• Backend:

  • Flask (Python web framework)
  • Geocoder library
  • Requests library
  • Nominatim API (OpenStreetMap)

• Frontend:

  • ReactJS
  • Tailwind CSS
  • Next.js
  • TypeScript
  • HTML5
  • CSS3
  • JavaScript

• Chatbot:

  • OpenAI GPT API

How to Run the Program

Frontend (React App)

1. Navigate to the frontend directory:

Copy code
cd frontend

2. Install dependencies:

Copy code
npm install

3. Run the React app:

Copy code
npm start

The React app will start, and you can access it at http://localhost:3000/.

Backend (Flask App)

1. Ensure you have Python installed on your system. If not, download and install it from python.org.

2. Set up a virtual environment (optional but recommended):

   python -m venv venv
   # On Windows: venv\Scripts\activate
   # On macOS/Linux: source venv/bin/activate

3. Install the required packages:

pip install -r requirements.txt

4. Run the Flask app:

python app.py

The Flask app will start, and you can access it at http://127.0.0.1:5000/nearest_hospitals.

Hospital Locator

• The web app includes a hospital locator feature.
• Users can find the 10 nearest hospitals based on their current location.
• The list includes distances, and clicking on a hospital shows it on an embedded map with directions.

Code Files

Backend (Flask App)

• app.py: Main Flask application file.
• main.py: Contains functions for distance calculation, location retrieval, and hospital search.

Frontend (React App)

• frontend/src/App.tsx: Main React component.
• frontend/src/pages/api/hospitals.ts: API endpoint for hospital data.
• frontend/src/pages/index.tsx: Homepage component.
• frontend/public/index.html: HTML template for the React app.

Additional Notes

• Make sure the backend Flask app is running before accessing the frontend.
• Modify API endpoints in the React app if Flask app runs on a different port.
