Prescripto 🩺 | My Practice Project

A full-stack doctor booking platform built for learning purposes

Prescripto is my practice project to learn full-stack development by building a complete healthcare appointment system. While not a production-ready application, it demonstrates core web development concepts and modern tech stack implementation.

🌟 Why I Built This

• To practice the MERN stack (MongoDB, Express, React, Node.js)
• To understand complex state management with React
• To implement real-world features like authentication and booking systems
• To learn best practices in code organization and project structure

🛠️ Practice Highlights

Implemented Features:

• JWT authentication system 🔑
• Appointment scheduling with conflict checking ⏰
• Doctor search with filters (specialization, availability) 🔍
• Responsive UI with Tailwind CSS 💅
• Error handling and form validation 🚨

Technical Challenges Overcome:

• State synchronization between frontend and backend
• Calendar slot management logic
• Role-based routing (Patient/Doctor/Admin)
• File upload for medical documents
• Deployment configuration for full-stack app

🧑💻 For Fellow Learners

This project helped me understand:

• How to structure medium-complexity applications
• Importance of proper API documentation
• Effective error handling strategies
• Performance optimization techniques
