Mobile application Medx.pro

Mobile cross-platform application for medical educational service Medx.pro.

Task

SBHI Moscow Clinical Scientific Center of City Health Department named after A.S. Loginov, and MedInvestGroup in 2020 launched the advanced training website for doctors and medical workers MedX.pro. The project is an advanced training institute and, within the framework of continuing medical education (CME), implements support for full-time training, online broadcasts, testing, asynchronous e-learning, and group work of students in the main areas of medicine. 

In the short term we were to implement a mobile version (an application) for the portal in order to increase the availability of courses and receive CME points for specialists.

Our work

The customers came to us in the midst of a pandemic, in March 2020. After several meetings in Zoom and discussion of application requirements, we chose Flutter, a cross-platform solution for implementing applications.

Medx.pro was based on the open source platform Moodle, a course management system. The platform has a mobile application, but unfortunately, it has not been in line with up-to-date system guidelines for a long time and is not customizable.  

Development stages

 In the first sprint, the main modules of the service were implemented - viewing courses and testing. Courses contain both text data and media content such as videos, mp3 audio files, pdf documents, and interactive presentations.

Student testing supports 7 types of answers to questions.  Course and test screens

In the second sprint, we worked on the user profile, calendar of events and live broadcasts, and favourite screens, and also on the main screen with news and lecture materials. The user can add to favourites not only course topics, but also questions from tests, news and video lectures.

At the next stage, we needed to enable In-App purchase for courses in AppStore. But there was a problem - Moodle did not offer plugins for integration with Apple. We created our own microservice to pay for courses.

We also had to implement in the microservice Oauth authorization through social networks.
