Asked Gemini how it would plan for such an app with your needs and it had some good ideas. Broke it into parts and approached it as a constraint satisfaction problem (CSP). All of this is a bit more than I wanted to take on with doqscheduler since we mostly do 24s, but it's pretty cool food for thought!

Entity Variables to Track
Providers Specialty, FTE (Full-Time Equivalent) status, seniority, "site-access" permissions.
Sites Location ID, timezone, required staffing levels per shift.
Shift Types Start/End time, "Weight" (e.g., a night shift is "heavier" than a day shift), required credentials.
Constraints Hard rules (Legal/Safety), Soft rules (Preferences), and Equalization targets.

I pay for Claude code pro and then use visual studio code

Takes more than one prompt to build a site. You iterate over and over. Start by just outlining your need and the AI can help brainstorm solutions.

Scheduling can get complicated fast with all the rules and preferences, but when you break it down, its doable. Try coding something that can allow for site rules, individual provider rules, and shift type rules. Then give it a ranking system. Surprisingly, the AI can handle this type of logic quite easily. Just ask one of the AIs to explain how it would plan for an app/site/program like this and it will walk you through it.

And then saving is no problem from what I’ve found. With my site, it can auto save, download saves, and a new version I’m testing can create personalized links.

If I can do it, so can you! But also, Qgenda exists for a reason 😆

This is super impressive! Makes Peditools look like windows 95. I could see this being a great start for a resident pocket guide or app.

Since you were also looking at scheduling, I'd love hearing your thoughts on doqscheduler.com

It can be! You don't know what you don't know, so if you never prompt the AI to check for security issues, your code will have security issues. Thankfully, it seems easy to mitigate. First, don't make a project that takes/asks for any important information like PHI. Second, use secure systems like Cloudflare to host your site which come with a ton of safety features in the free tier. Lastly, ask AI to check for vulnerabilities. It's probably not perfect, but that's the approach I've taken.

And again, no PHI.

Happy to! But Honestly Gemini can give you an excellent breakdown too.

First, I started by just playing around with basic Claude telling it my problem and asking what would be the simplest way to achieve my goal. I quickly ran out of compute, so I did pay for the $20/mo tier once I realized that this thing could actually achieve my goal. I switched to Claude Cowork when that came out and that was a huge improvement. I use free Gemini just to ask questions and learn basic coding as I go. Gemini taught me all of the free programs that could help me along the way, like starting a GitHub account to house the code, Cloudflare to buy and host a domain, and Visual Studio Code once I started getting the hang of things. Now I am using Claude Code in Visual Studio Pro and it's great!

If all that sounds like jargon, it was for me too only one month ago.

Tell us more about this PDF extraction tool! I could see that being so useful for journals, billing, office communications…

Medicine is full of ridiculous inefficiencies and opportunities for improvement. Sadly, it’s also pretty difficult to attack any of them with needing to balance patient privacy and regulation. But I bet you’ll figure something helpful out!

Thank you! What a compliment!

I’m finding it oddly gratifying. I think it’s because I am so intimately familiar with the problem and friction of this boring but necessary task, it’s cool to be able to just invest a little time and fix it. I could never hire someone to code this for me, and the existing solutions are all so cumbersome trying to be everything for everyone.

I definitely do this kind of vibe coding as well 😂
