From June 24th to 26th, 2020, Wild Code School organized an international code marathon in partnership with Doctolib, the leader in online appointments in France. More than 100 teams have taken this challenge.
The teams have to develop an application in three days in relation with telemedicine.
The evaluation criteria taken into account by examiners were:
- UX design
- technical aspects
- concept
- oral presentation
Six subjects were proposed. We chose the sixth one: free topic.
Two main features were developped:
- help to pillbox filling: a user is helped in its pillbox filling by reading step-by-step personalized instructions.
- display of pillbox content: a user can display an overview of the current medication in the pillbox.
This app is thought to be connected with a Doctolib's user account. Medication prescription would be automatically loaded from the Doctolib database and the pillbox instructions would adapt regarding to these informations. That's the concept, but for this hackathon, a new database has been created from zero for testing this application.
The presented result is a minimum vital product.
The user can choose between the two features from this home page.
Step-by-step, explicit instructions are displayed. The user have medication's picture not to confound, the pills quantity and the posology.
Once that the user filled its pillbox, he can confirm to go ahead to the next step.
In this example, there are 14 steps.
It's well worth noting that button and font's sizes are intentionally big. This is a UX design choice to make the user experience as clear as possible and extremely visible, considering that the average user of this application would probably be old with a potential bad sight and few experience with web applications.
When the filling is over, a validation message is displayed.
Finaly, the user can watch a full recap of a filled pillbox.
