Origin / meaning of the HAPI name

[Bodo Graumann]

What does HAPI stand for?

Has it anything to do with hapi.dev?

How was it chosen?

Hi Bodo,

Heh. Oddly enough we actually had the HAPI name first, the hapi.js library copied our name for whatever reason.

The HAPI project was started in the year 2001, and the name is kind of boring. It stands for "HL7 API" :)

There's a tiny bit of history documented here, although we really need to flesh this out more: https://hapifhir.io/hapi-history.html

Cheers,

James
