Approximately what would you like to do with openEHR in PHP?

Would a PHP\-frontend to existing openEHR\-backends with available SOAP
or REST interfaces be interesting?

Re\-implementing the entire openEHR\-stack including storage and
querying from scratch in any language/framework \(e\.g\. PHP\) is a
daunting task and nothing I would recommend as a starter project if
you can avoid it :\-\) But I am sure there are many possible interesting
PHP based openEHR\-related things that could be done if that is your
preferred language/platform\. \(Some experiments/prototyping with
Archetype/Template management with versioning management in GIT for
example\.\)

Hello Franco,

Welcome to the openEHR community :-)

For your information, Code24 has a fully operational back-end based on the openEHR v1.0.2 specifications and created with PHP. This back-end is accessible through a PHP-API or SOAP-interface. Our front-end development is also PHP.

Best regards,

HI Franco
It might be worth calling Martin van der Meer at Code24 - he is an early leader in openEHR and works with PHP.
Cheers, Sam
