Inspiration

As of now there is no central blood and organ donation management platform. With the experiences of COVID itseems to be ideal to have platform to manage blood and organ donations so that no one else will loose life because of information availability

What it does

Centrally manages blood and organ donation, informs and provides various status updates & workflows to manage blood donations

How we built it

Built using .NET Core 5.0 installed in AWS Linux, PostgreSQL (Amazon Aurora), Redis for caching and message queue and Auth0 for authentication

We have used EC2 m6g.medium Graviton2-based instance for hosting ASP.NET Core 5.0 application

Challenges we ran into

Installing .NET Core 5.0 in Amazon Linux, installed manually from Microsoft instead of yum package manager and Setting up SSL with letsencrypt for certificate generation

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Building MVP quicker with the help of development tools available and resources available from AWS and free tier

What we learned

Setting up .NET Core and Let's Encrypt in Amazon Linux Performance gains by running .NET Core directly instead of nginx/apache reverse proxy

What's next for zindagi

Develop features for full fledged blood group management and organ donation including connecting donors, hospitals, users across etc.,
