The Open Ventilator Registry project is answering the call to provide a cloud-based national registry of ventilators and the hospitals that need them most in order to facilitate their distribution during the COVID19 pandemic. Even with a ramp up in ventilator production, there is still the significant problem of their efficient distribution.
The Open Ventilator Registry is calling on software engineers to help build a platform for hospitals to report on their stock of ventilators and if they have a surplus or deficit. Hospitals with a surplus can then send their supply to hospitals in greatest need. We aim to create a nimble and decentralized supply chain and distribution network of these life saving devices.
We have registered the domain www.openventilatorregistry.org and will deploy the web application there when it is ready.

You can start by requesting to join this organization and detailing what skills you have that we can use. You can also star this repository to raise its profile. We will also need to spread the word to hospitals and other public health officials that this project is available for their use.
The founders of this project have experience with .NET Core, and development of the backend is starting with that tech stack because that is how we can be most productive. The frontend, hosting and much more is still TBD, and over time we expect there to be several components that can be developed using various technologies.
Time is of the essence. Many projects get bogged down with disagreements over technologies, coding style, frameworks, and methodologies. We will not let any individual's sense of perfection get in the way of what's good enough to get the job done. We believe our work will help save lives, and we want to save as many as we can.
March 22nd, 2020 is day 1 of this project. According to some public officials, we will be in crisis in 10 days.
