Open epidemiology platform for Africa : OpenEpi rewrite in React/TypeScript with epidemic simulation, geospatial mapping, in-browser R IDE, and multilingual support including Mooré, Wolof, Swahili and Haoussa. **Open Epidemiology Platform Built for Africa** *« La connaissance est comme un baobab : une seule personne ne peut l'embrasser. »* **Live Demo** · **Documentation** · **Report a Bug** · **Contact** --- ## What is Wepisia? Wepisia is a complete architectural rewrite of OpenEpi, the world's reference open-source epidemiology calculator rebuilt with modern web technologies and extended with capabilities the original never had: multi-region epidemic simulation, interactive geospatial mapping, an in-browser R IDE, and multilingual support for African languages. Everything runs **locally in the browser**. No server. No installation. No data leaves your device. --- ## Standing on Giants : a tribute to OpenEpi > This project would not exist without the foundational work of the OpenEpi team. Their decision to release a complete, scientifically rigorous epidemiology toolkit under the MIT license made Wepisia possible. We owe them a profound debt. **The OpenEpi Team** **Primary Reference:** > Dean AG, Sullivan KM, Soe MM. *OpenEpi: Open Source Epidemiologic Statistics for Public Health*, Version 3.01. www.OpenEpi.com, updated 2013/04/06. **Peer-reviewed publication:** > Sullivan KM, Dean AG, Mir R.

DOI: 10.1177/003335490912400320 Every statistical result in Wepisia is validated against OpenEpi v3. Where the two tools differ on edge cases (small-sample CI approximations), the difference is documented and annotated in the interface. --- ## What's New Beyond OpenEpi ``` OpenEpi (2002) Wepisia (2026) ───────────────── ───────────────────────────────────────── Static HTML/JS → React 18 + TypeScript + Vite Desktop-only → Mobile-first, fully responsive English-only → 6 languages incl.
