Add Healthcare

https://github.com/kakoni/awesome-health

A curated list of awesome open health software, libraries, tools and resources. This guide is very nice for working professionals and healthcare providers looking for open source health solutions. I hope you consider adding it!

By submitting this pull request I confirm I've read and complied with the below requirements.

Failure to properly do so will just result in the pull request being closed and everyone's time wasted. Please read it twice. Most people miss many things.

• I have read and understood the contribution guidelines and the instructions for creating a list.
• This pull request has a descriptive title. For example, Add Name of List, not Update readme.md or Add awesome list.
• The entry in the Awesome list should include a short description about the list project/theme (not the list itself), and should be added at the bottom of the appropriate category.
• The list I added
  • has been around for at least 30 days,
  • is the result of hard work and is the best I could possibly produce,
  • is a non-generated Markdown file in a GitHub repo,
  • is not a duplicate,
  • includes a succinct description of the project/theme at the top (example),
  • includes a project logo/illustration (whenever possible) at the top right of the readme (example). (The logo should link to the project website or any relevant website. The logo should be high-DPI, so set it to maximum half the width of the original image.),
  • only has awesome items with descriptions (Awesome lists are curations of the best, not of everything),
  • contains the awesome badge on the right side of the list heading,
  • has a Table of Contents section named Contents as the first section,
  • has an appropriate license (Meaning something like CC0, NOT a code licence like MIT, BSD, Apache, etc) (If you use a license badge, it should be SVG, not PNG),
  • has contribution guidelines,
  • doesn't include a Travis badge,
  • has been checked for inconsistent formatting, spelling, and grammar:
    • Each link description starts with an uppercase character and ends with a period.
    • Drop all the A / An prefixes in the descriptions.
    • Consistent naming. For example, Node.js, not NodeJS or node.js.

@sindresorhus Just pinging you to see if this has been reviewed. For whatever it's worth, I do think this a pretty harmless addition.

Thanks for all you do with this project!

Not followed:

• Each link description starts with an uppercase character and ends with a period.

Also, add the topics awesome-list, awesome, and list.

Hi @legodude17,

Thanks for the review.

• I just committed (kakoni/awesome-healthcare@8c4a782) the formatting fixes.
• I have asked the project admin, Karri, to add those topics via Topics kakoni/awesome-healthcare#21

I am sure that Karri will add those topics in a timely fashion. Feel free to bring in this PR.

Thanks,
Matthew

@MatthewVita I don't have permission to merge PR's, I am just helping out @sindresorhus.

@sindresorhus Anything else for this PR?

[MatthewVita]

Sounds like you should be made a contributor then 👍

[jcfr]

@legodude17 and @sindresorhus Thanks for organizing the awesome lists 👍

Having just contributed to the awesome-health list, my contribution was well received by @MatthewVita and we had a productive exchange.

Let me know what I can do to help integrate the health list to the top-level list.

Have a great weekend,
Jc

@sindresorhus,

Just rebased the branch.

As @jcfr said, let us know what can be done to help integrate this. I would offer to help maintain your repo, but I am maintaining 2 other projects and wouldn't be able to find the time. However, it seems like @legodude17 has proven that he has what it takes to be a maintainer.

EDIT: I have had luck posting to Ask HackerNews when looking for people to help me with open source projects. Perhaps you can do that to get a few more people to help!

Thanks,
Matthew

Awesome Health should not be in the TOC.

OS X => macOS

A curated list of medical data => Curated list of medical data

---

Is Health really the best title for this list? It seems more like a Medical list or something. Health is a lot more generic than this list. It could be personal health and how to be more healthy.

---

What's the goal of the list? That should really be stated at the top of the readme. And who are the target group? Kinda seems like the list is for people starting their own hospital.

Hi @sindresorhus,

Thanks for the response. I have adjusted the heading to:

Curated list of awesome open source healthcare software, libraries, tools and resources. Each link has been vetted to ensure the project is active and provides value to healthcare facilities, providers, developers, policy experts, and/or research scientists.

Have also removed the redundant root note from the ToC.

I can see how awesome-health is a very vague title. I believe awesome-healthcare is a more specific title. I will talk to the other maintainer to see if this can be changed. Thank you in advance for your patience.

Thanks,
Matthew

Hi @sindresorhus,

I am happy to inform you that this PR is ready to go!

Thanks,
Matthew

[sindresorhus]

The entry in the Awesome list should include a short description about the list project/theme (not the list itself)

[MatthewVita]

Hi @sindresorhus,

I see what you mean and have made the appropriate changes.

Your eye on quality is appreciated.

Thanks,
Matthew
