What it does

Everything a repertory should do — in one file

Boericke’s Repertory brings a printed clinical reference into the browser without losing what makes it useful: fast lookup, graded remedies, and a repertorisation chart you can actually read. No server, no build step, no tracking.

Instant search

Results across 6,110 rubrics by symptom, path or remedy name, with matched terms highlighted and a chapter filter. Full keyboard control: / to focus, arrows to move, Enter to add.

Repertorise

Tap rubrics to build a chart that scores every remedy across them — italic grade 2 counts two points, plain grade 1 counts one — then ranks by total, rubric count or remedy name.

Remedy browser

Tap any remedy inside a rubric to see every rubric that lists it, along with its grade — a fast way to check a remedy’s full clinical picture.

Case records

Save patient details, notes and prescription alongside the rubric selection and chart; reload, print, export or import as JSON — entirely on your own device.

Print & export

Print the repertorisation chart straight from the app — no pop-ups, no extra windows. Everything is sized for a clean sheet of paper.

Looks & privacy

Modern responsive interface with light, dark and auto themes and five accent colours. One self-contained file: no internet needed after loading, and no tracking of any kind.

How it works

From symptom to chart in three moves

There is no account and no setup. Open the page and the whole repertory is already there.

Step One

Search the rubric

Type a symptom or a remedy name. Filter by chapter if you like. Matching terms are highlighted inside each rubric so you can see exactly why it surfaced.

Step Two

Add it to the chart

Tap a rubric to add it. Selected rubrics gather at the foot of the screen, and every remedy listed under them is scored by grade and ranked by total.

Step Three

Read, save or print

Sort the chart, tap a remedy to trace its full picture, attach patient notes to a case, then print the sheet or export the case as JSON.

Questions

Frequently asked

Is it really free?
Yes. The project is free to use, copy, modify and distribute, provided that attribution is given to the content and the design. See the licence for the full terms.
Does it work offline?
Yes. The app is one self-contained HTML file. Once it has loaded, no internet connection is required, and there is no server, no build step and no tracking.
What exactly is in the dataset?
6,110 rubrics, 1,461 unique remedies and 25 chapters. Remedies are de-duplicated so OCR variants merge into one canonical name, duplicate rubrics are merged, and remedy-less category headings are kept for structure but never appear in search results — so every rubric shown carries at least one remedy.
What do the grades mean?
In the repertorisation chart, an italic grade 2 remedy counts two points and a plain grade 1 remedy counts one. Remedies are then ranked by total score, rubric count or remedy name.
Where does the content come from?
The Repertory by Oscar E. Boericke, M.D. (1927), the companion to the Pocket Manual of Homoeopathic Materia Medica, 9th edition, by William Boericke, M.D. The text was digitised from the public-domain edition at homeoint.org (presented by Médi-T). The design and application are by Dr. Sohil Momin.
Can I save my cases?
Yes. Cases hold patient details, notes and the prescription alongside the rubric selection and chart. They can be reloaded, printed, and exported or imported as JSON — all stored on your own device.
Is it a substitute for clinical judgement?
No. It is provided as is, for study and reference by qualified practitioners, and is not a substitute for professional homoeopathic or medical judgment.
