Domain schema: appliance_types (code, name, description, typical_duration_months): braces and aligner options; treatment_stages (appliance_type_id, stage_no, name, what_to_expect): public description of treatment phases; locations (name, address, phone, opening_hours): practice locations; age_groups (name, guidance): children, teens and adults guidance; asset_versions (version, cdn_key, published_at): versioned assets served from the CDN bucket. Public information: appliance options and durations, stage-by-stage expectations, age-group guidance, locations. Kept out of scope until handling is reviewed: patient scans and treatment plans, progress photos, guardian and minor identity. Orthodontic plans and progress imagery are health data; keep them out of scope until handling is reviewed. No compliance is claimed. Technical basis verified on Django: a versioned, immutable-cached asset uploaded to a published bucket and served from the CDN URL alongside the app's own public HTTPS URL.

It does not front app compute and is not a cache or key-value store.) ## Prerequisites - A Django project (pip install into .ample/python from requirements.txt, then waitress serving project.wsgi from run.py reading PORT on the python-3.12 template) - Bucket credentials from `ample bucket create` passed as encrypted S3_* environment variables and a published bucket for public assets (CDN_*) - A review of which orthodontics data classes may be handled at all; this blueprint models public information only ## Exact tested configuration - template: `python-3.12` - runtime: `python` - size: `s-1vcpu-1gb` - install: `python3 -m pip install --target .ample/python -r requirements.txt` - start: `PYTHONPATH=.ample/python:${PYTHONPATH:-} python3 run.py` ## Steps 1. **Model the orthodontics domain.** Create the tables appliance_types, treatment_stages, locations, age_groups, asset_versions. Braces and aligner options lives in appliance_types; keep the sensitive classes (patient scans and treatment plans, progress photos, guardian and minor identity) out of this schema. 2. **Workflow step 1.** Model articles and categories as tables keyed to the public catalog entities 3. **Workflow step 2.** Build the site with versioned assets served from the CDN bucket 4. **Workflow step 3.** Keep articles free of any sensitive data class 5. **Workflow step 4.** Deploy and verify the public URL and the CDN asset URL 6. **Deploy.** Run the synchronous deploy once and read the result. Re-running with no change is a no-op. ``` ample deploy . --name --public --start "python3 run.py" --env S3_ENDPOINT=... --env S3_REGION=... --env S3_BUCKET=... --env S3_ACCESS_KEY_ID=... --env S3_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=... --env CDN_PUBLIC_URL=... ``` 7. **Verify.** Run the pattern self-test(s) from the example (/p/versioned-static-assets) and your own acceptance checks for the orthodontics workflow. ``` ample logs --kind build ``` ## Tested examples - **Django pattern fixture** (tests/deploy-canaries/django-patterns): Verified public web service basis for this blueprint. ## Success checks - app responds on its public URL (`/` on the live URL, expect ample canary django patterns) - versioned-static-assets self-test from the example (`/p/versioned-static-assets` on the live URL, expect see the pattern fixture checks) ## Cost estimate Estimated 5.00 USD per month (size prices from pricing.toml at build revision 515b7316fc6e5a81679407ae0c811146ceb2c5c7). - app server x1 `s-1vcpu-1gb`: 5.00 USD Always-on monthly price of the tested sizes; apps and databases auto-pause when idle. Buckets are allocation-priced per quota and not included. ## Verification evidence - canary_run on 2026-09-20T03:31:44Z at revision `03b6402b1b3e19178985f08ea4033804521d85d4 (CLI b75e104)`: Django pattern fixture deployed on Ample (pip install into .ample/python from requirements.txt, then waitress serving project.wsgi from run.py reading PORT on the python-3.12 template); the public web service checks passed: a versioned, immutable-cached asset uploaded to a published bucket and served from the CDN URL alongside the app's own public HTTPS URL. The blueprint's Orthodontics schema and workflow below build on that verified basis and were not separately executed.
