🤯
I’m continually impressed by ChatGPT. This morning I thought it would be really nice to be able to track my health statistics on Nextcloud, my private cloud that I have running just behind me in my closet. What a cool little project to give to ChatGPT and see how quickly we can get something up and running. It’s 8am on a Tuesday morning, I’m back to work on my day job, but I have about an hour to fiddle around with it. Let’s see how quickly ChatGPT can get this started….
A little background, I’ve been tracking some health parameters for a while with iHealth, mainly because they’ve made it easy to do so. I have a bluetooth bloodpressure cuff, every time I take my BP, it’s logged to the cloud. It has a nice UI. But, I’m not very happy with giving my health information away anymore. So I’ve been looking for a new home for my health data. Lately, I’ve been using “Waistline”, an open source app found on F-Droid. It works, but not nearly as nicely as iHealth. The data is siloed, and I’m not really sure how to get it out of the app. So, passively I’m still looking. That’s were we pick up the story for this idea.
Here is the chat in it’s entirety. I basically walk the bot through the process of coding the entire plugin for me.
At this point, I have yet to test it out, but as you can see, it’s an amazing start. I’ve got a plugin templated out, an API, and directions to get the frontend started as well. It’s 9am now, so I need to get to my day job. But, wow. Just WOW.
More to come as time permits.
