Both could be downloaded as host (Mac, Windows) versions from the Evaluation site, or can be used in the form of containers pulled from InterSystems Container Registry or Community Containers: intersystemsdc/iris-community:latest or intersystemsdc/irishealth-community:latest .
  • The application should be Open Source and published on GitHub.
  • The README file to the application should be in English, contain the installation steps, and contain either the video demo or/and a description of how the application works.
