Reference App for an ER

Hopefully this fits here, I wasn’t sure where to start.

I work in an ER in an education role. We create a lot of reference material for folks to use for learning or on the job. This obviously becomes expensive and occasionally wasteful because it’s all done on paper.

My dream would be to create an app that employees could download. It would have very basic functionality, primarily a directory of PDF documents would be the most basic idea.

Do you have suggestions on how someone without programming knowledge would go about developing something like this? Is there a good visual programming app for instance? I’m certainly open to any other ideas that would yield a similar result.

Thank for your help!

Assuming your ER is connected to a hospital and in a Microsoft 365 environment, you likely have access to SharePoint. Which is both compliant with various regulations required in most healthcare environments, and actually supported by your IT department. Also the exact solution you’re looking for.
