Collaborative software engineering
A five-person academic digital-health platform for appointments, user workflows, communication, and clinical-support features.
01 · Overview
Academic prototype using fictional demonstration data. LusoHealth is not a live healthcare service.
LusoHealth was built as a shared academic client-server project. The repository combines an Angular client with an ASP.NET Core API and SQL-backed data layer.
I worked on the project in a five-person team using a shared Git workflow.

Team context
Project roles and team-created work are listed alongside my individual contribution.
03 · Team and Git workflow
The project combined defined feature work with a shared main branch and cross-layer integration.
04 · Decisions
How the project structured its systems, interactions, and delivery constraints.
Controllers, services, DTOs, models, and data access were separated to keep API responsibilities explicit across a large shared codebase.
The Angular application and ASP.NET Core API were maintained as distinct application layers with typed client services mediating requests.
SignalR supported chat-related project capabilities while the rest of the platform used REST-style API endpoints.
05 · Problem solving
Concrete constraints are paired with the implementation or design response used in the project.
Coordinating changes across related frontend and backend workflows in a shared repository.
Worked through scoped Angular and API changes within the team’s Git workflow, keeping DTOs, controllers, and client services aligned.
Keeping a broad healthcare feature set understandable.
Used routed feature areas and a layered API structure to organise appointments, communication, reports, and moderation.
