Hey HN, Some friends and I built an app called Sidekick that joins your telehealth visits in real-time. It explains medical terms and suggests useful questions, including ones you may not have thought to ask. After the visit, it provides a summary including next steps, so you can focus on the conversation instead of taking notes. The idea of Sidekick came from our team's experiences with healthcare. Our founder, Rahul, had stage three cancer at 17. His mom had to manage everything around his care: taking notes through treatment, figuring out what questions to ask, etc. A decade later and heββ¦

For example, you could add variations to your strokes, add stroke order and direction guides for learning applications, or creβ¦

The team loved being able to request features and have them implemented exactly as they needed. I wanted to make it easier to build these kinds of applications without losing flexibility. The idea behind LongLink is simple: keep the code and abstract the infrastructure. Each application is built with standard Python and FastAPI. The code lives in a normal repository, so it can be developed, tested, versioned, reviewed, and cβ¦
