Allie K. Miller shares the story of Nolini, a first-time developer who used Claude Code to build a medication management app for her family in five hours. The app takes photos of prescription labels and converts them to a dosage schedule, checks for drug interactions, and produces a print-ready doctor summary. Under the hood: an HTML app built with Claude Code, a Cloudflare Worker acting as a secure API proxy (keeping the API key out of the browser), Microsoft Entra ID for family-only authentication, and patient data stored in Excel on OneDrive separately from the application code.
