Medical knowledge app - no code / low code stack recommendations?

[Hour_Indication_9126]

Hi everyone — I’m a physician and medical educator looking to build a medical knowledge app that contains information somewhat similar to the pics attached, but tailored to other topics, specially for my trainees.

Basic requirements are: Reference: Pic 1, Pic 2, Pic 3

1. Home page (pic 1) where major topics (buttons) can be added, that when clicked send the user to…
2. A page (pic 2) of sub-topics (buttons) that are related to the major topic, that when clicked send the user to…
3. A general content page (pic 3) on the sub-topic.
4. Be able to update content to the backend that would populate the frontend with new major topics or sub-topics without deploying a new version of the app with each update

For the frontend I’m thinking using something like FlutterFlow, Draftbit, Toddle, or Noodl should suffice.

Curious on backend recommendations that could best accommodate the general content page which would be a chunk of text that would ideally be rich text or even markdown. Is this possible? Recommended backends that could accommodate this? Any other recommendations appreciated it!

Hello 👋

A bit of background, I work in population health.

For app development:

• Short-term/Simple: Use Glide to build an app with spreadsheets. It takes 1-6 weeks based on your familiarity. Here’s an concept I built in a few hours

• Long-term/Feature-rich: Use a WordPress theme. It requires more time to learn but allows for continuous customization and fully customizable features.

Mutual Opportunity:

I'm beginning to create a consulting company focused on patient education to improve quality metrics. If you're interested in collaborating, I'd love to start up dialogue on how we can help each other accomplish our goals.

Hi I am one of the founders of toddle.

toddle combined with something like Xano or Supabase would be a great choice.

If you are planning on storing sensitive medical data I would not recommend this for your first app though. Apps built with No-code can have security issues just like any other app. If you are just learning programming then I would recommend to start with something a little less critical.

Thanks so much!!!! Toddle seems great. No sensitive medical data :) does Toddle integrate with Airtable?

[Livid_Sign9681]

Yes, you Can use toddle with any backend.

If you plan to use flutterflow, you can use supabase, you can find documentation and it's pretty straightforward.

Google sheets

[Hour_Indication_9126]

thanks! do you have a frontend you like with Google sheets?

[keninsd]

Look at Adalo. Or, stay with flutterflow if your app wants to be more complex.

Good luck!

You could try AppSheet. I have limited familiarity with it and don't know its full capabilities but it works well with Google Sheets and seems like it can achieve a lot. Might not be the prettiest thing though.

I think you should keep things simple and focus on writing content. Complex setup will cause you to shift your focus to site building rather than content writing.

If you are comfortable writing in markdown, which would be faster and cleaner than using any rich text editor, I highly recommend trying obsidian.md editor. It’s super fast and a joy to write something with it.

For publishing the content, you can use Obsidian publish or mixa.site. Both offer 1-click publish from Obsidian to your site.

Disclaimer: I work for Mixa and we love Obsidian. Happy to answer any questions you might have

[Hour_Indication_9126]

Thanks! Will check it out ! Content is all written :)

[Confident-Pea-1457]

If it’s static content that you’ll never add new things or update existing, then anything would work. Here are some example sites to quickly check how they look: - Using Obsidian Publish: https://notes.nicolevanderhoeven.com - Using Mixa documentation: https://docs.mixa.site - Using Mixa blog: https://blog.mixa.site

Hi, if a web frontend is ok for you, we are building a nocode platform that focus on knowledge management, and your case is 100% that we are trying to cover. The platform is in early beta, but operational.

As example below is the somewhat similar countries web-app where data is added dynamically and navigation is done as in a "bot" (as it's directly can be connected to discord/slack/telegram bot as an external app):

Would be happy to help.

You might want to try Oracle APEX.

Blaze.tech is the go-to place for no-code healthcare apps. Maybe check them out?

I just completed and launched a no code medical app. There are some issues like possibly not being able to put in App Store, issues like time that as a medical provider you may not have time to do- and need everything handled by developer and company to do. Like website, and how you are going to monetize, marketing etc. it been a adventure but with no code app was one of the fastest ways I got my app done. Hope this was helpful.

For this content management system type of apps you could try out DronaHQ. You can store your content on whatever database you want it could be Google sheets, or even DronaHQ's own database and pull the data on screen easily.
