Thank you! Glad to see more open-source in healthcare - was the idea here sort of like a reusable EHR backend for building digital health products? I see some mention of HAPI FHIR in the repo as well.

Yes it was - it was internal to our company, but the apps got sold off when the business downsized. The engineering team lobbied to have the main backend open sourced, partly because it made the divestment of the apps built on it easier.

The architecture was that that was a backend for apps, and the individual apps would host a stateless BFF service to translate the backend into what they needed, and then the web/mobile apps would talk to that. HAPI FHIR was integrated for testing reasons; it also spoke HL7v2, for our sins.

Was there anything else at Sensyne that could have been open-sourced and/or of value to the community?

I may be in a position to open some of that up before it's lost.
