Mobile System Overview
Architecture Philosophy
The ADHD Simple mobile application follows an offline-first, sync-enabled architecture designed to provide patients with a reliable, intuitive experience for managing ADHD medications regardless of network connectivity.System Components
1. Mobile Application Layer
- React Native + Expo: Cross-platform mobile framework
- TypeScript: Type safety and development experience
- Expo Router: File-based navigation system
- Local Storage: AsyncStorage for offline data persistence
2. Shared Services Layer
- Centralized Backend: Single source of truth for all business logic
- Supabase Database: PostgreSQL with real-time capabilities
- Edge Functions: Serverless functions for API operations
- Row Level Security: Patient data isolation and access control
3. External Integrations
- Stripe: Payment processing and card management
- Clinical System: Doctor prescription management
- Notification Services: Push notifications and SMS
Data Flow Architecture
Key Architectural Patterns
1. Offline-First Design
- Local Data Persistence: All critical data cached locally
- Sync on Connect: Automatic synchronization when online
- Conflict Resolution: Server-side validation and merging
- Optimistic Updates: Immediate UI feedback with background sync
2. Dual Storage System
- Draft Storage: Local-only data for incomplete operations
- Synced Storage: Cached server data for offline access
- Clean Separation: Clear boundaries between draft and live data
- Automatic Cleanup: Drafts removed after successful submission
3. Unified Checkout System
- Shared Screens: Common UI for different order types
- Flow Convergence: Multiple entry points, single checkout process
- Type-Driven Logic: Business logic determined by order type
- Consistent UX: Same experience regardless of flow origin
Security & Compliance
Data Protection
- End-to-End Encryption: Patient data encrypted in transit and at rest
- Row Level Security: Database-level access control
- Token-Based Auth: Secure session management
- Local Encryption: Sensitive data encrypted in local storage
Healthcare Compliance
- HIPAA Considerations: Patient data handling protocols
- Audit Trails: Complete activity logging
- Data Retention: Automated cleanup policies
- Access Controls: Role-based permissions
