73-Year-Old Cardiac Patient Builds Health Tracking PWA with Claude AI
ClinBridge: A Health Tracking PWA Built with Claude AI
A 73-year-old individual with no prior coding experience built a complete Progressive Web App for health tracking using Claude AI. The project started after a hospitalization for dehydration in November 2025, when they couldn't find an existing app that met their specific needs.
Key Details from the Build
The developer has congestive heart failure, diastolic dysfunction, heart valve disease, sick sinus syndrome, bradycardia, coronary artery disease, peripheral artery disease, a history of TIAs, and hypertension. They built ClinBridge over several months using conversation-driven development with Claude.
App Features:
- Tracks blood pressure, fluid intake, weight, heart rate, symptoms, meals, and activities
- All data stays on the phone with no external transmission
- No account required
- Completely offline functionality
- Local storage only
- Free with no ads, subscriptions, or accounts
Technical Details:
- Progressive Web App (PWA) that installs on any phone
- Current version: 9.9.25
- Entire codebase is open source on GitHub
- Built specifically for cardiac patients dealing with similar health tracking needs
The developer emphasizes that Claude didn't replace a developer but enabled someone with no coding background to become one. The app is available live at clinbridge.clinic, with source code at github.com/sommerstexan-lgtm/ClinBridge.
