# Developer Documentation ### About iCure iCure is a secured and distributed healthcare platform that helps you create apps and share data with the healthcare community. To make it possible, the iCure [Data Model](https://github.com/icure-io/icure-tech-docs/blob/master/icure-data-model/README.md) focus on the integrity, the anonymization and the encryption of your data, without forgetting to make it compatible with higher level Medical Data conceptual Data Models (such as FHIR, Open EHR, ...). Thanks to this high-level model, iCure will then let you easily manage all your data in a protected way, through a series of APIs. Following your needs, iCure can either be used in the Cloud or installed locally in a bare metal server or in a personal computer. iCure is: * Easy to use for [web and app developers](/icure/icure-data-stack/mobile-web-sdks.md) * Secured by an [End-to-End encryption](/icure/icure-data-stack/end-to-end-encryption.md) scheme * Fault-tolerant and highly scalable * Compatible with the [FHIR](/icure/interoperability/fhir-api-data-exchange.md) data model * Available as an [XDS](/icure/interoperability/iti-registry-repository.md) registry/repository --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
