Experience
Medical Clinic Application
A medical clinic application for booking appointments. Receptionists can select a specific specialization and available physician and book a slot for a patient. After the receptionist makes the appointment, the system sends an invitation email to the physician and patient. I built this application using LWC and Apex objects and settings for the object model, app builder, reports, and dashboard.
FinancialForce Workspaces
Workspaces are persona-based UIs that consist of navigation panels, alert cards, count cards, dashboards, reports, and list views. Managers can use them to focus on and easily manage their daily work. In the navigation panels, alert cards and count cards are configurable generic LWC. The user selects an sObject and view and inputs text to render data on cards.
