Investigate Kailona #58

Open cyroxx opened 3 years ago

cyroxx commented 3 years ago

There is another Nextcloud app, Kailona, which has a similar scope. It might be useful to do some research on that app.

One main difference is that it requires a (separate) FHIR server (see also Forum: Kailona not designed for end-users right?). Just for reference: In #18 it was proposed to use Open mHealth for our purposes.

I had some talk to the ehr team. They are just starting and will become a big solution for health things. While I'm just a private person with very limited time to investigate, the ehr project will overcome this app maybe. But until that, I will continue with small steps to make a basic and stable health app. I use the app for myself and need it now, thats why I do not stop the development. But I will not investgate to much time for innovative things, thats a job for ehr with more power. And we are also talking to combine our power.

I think the EHR app is targeting a different group. Please don't stop development. The fact that EHR requires yet another server install limits its user reach.

I think the Health app has a totally valid use case. By no means did I want to talk down your efforts, on the contrary, I would like to develop a bit for the Health app.

As @aproposnix has already pointed out, Kailona/EHR has a different scope. While one can learn from each other maybe in some aspects, I have the strong feeling that both have their own right to exist.

I did not want to de-motivate you, just increase awareness about this other app that is in the making.
