## UI

Consider shift of methodolgy as shown by the OPAL project, using Angluar JS as the Client side technology, with a Django application service backing it (and possibly a direct link to FhirBase?)

## Infrastructure

At somepoint, the reality is that developed services will need to operate somewhere. Given the low value and high cost of IM&T solutions, external alternatives to consider include:
