The OpenSource physician's practice software 'Elexis' has become one of the major players in the swiss medical software market. Since its launch in 2005 it grew from a one-man-show to a project, powered by an OpenSource Community, generously led bei Niklaus Giger, and a commercial Company, Medelexis AG.

One drawback of the increasing complexity of the Elexis System is a remarkable decrease of speed, and another is, that the user interface, a Eclipse RCP, has come of age.

Webelexis, being primarily a hobby project and a playground for me, tries to develop a new approach to some of the features of Elexis, mainly a web based surface (hence the name 'Webelexis').

So, the main tasks are:

  • create a user interface based on modern techniques, which should be usable with PC's as well as with mobile devices. (Why?)

  • create a server

  • define a transport concept
