About

Open Data Capture is a web-based platform designed for continuous clinical data collection. The platform is centered on the concept of an instrument. Broadly defined, an instrument refers to any tool that can be used to collect data (e.g., forms, interactive tasks).

Flexible instrument build system implemented directly in the browser via WebAssembly ⚡
- Declarative form creation with a JSON-like syntax for accessibility ✨
- Custom instrument runtime with dynamic imports and native ES modules for experienced users 🔥
Secure by default with JWT authentication and granular permission controls 🔐

Quick Start

Assuming that Docker and Docker Compose are already installed on your system, you can deploy an instance of Open Data Capture using the following command:

./scripts/generate-env.sh && docker compose up -d

By default, the application will run on port 5500. So, navigate to http://localhost:5500 in your browser and you should be greeted with the setup screen. After getting started, we highly recommend reading our deployment guide for additional information on how to configure Open Data Capture to best meet the needs of your organization.
