All types.
The sugar dashboard allows import of data from different glucose apps, so its goal is to allow you visualize and analyze your data. I hope to integrate with cgms directly if I get some that allow it, and also source from Health connect. Sharing with specific people eg doctor is also a big ask that I'm working on.
The other WIP tools will be fore general health, not just diabetes, like carb counting from a photo via AI
replyAlso recently diagnosed and just open sourced how I'm using AI to count carbs + get insulin doses [1]. Biggest issues I've seen to starting a legit business is not having sanctioned access to real-time blood sugar values (the APIs are all one hour behind), and dealing with the FDA. Love the idea of more tech-enabled diabetes management, good luck!
replyLove this! Thank you for sharing!
My backend is also in Go so this is a godsend. Will see how I can incorporate and let you know if I do!
reply> not having sanctioned access to real-time blood sugar values (the APIs are all one hour behind)
Ah, I didn't know this. One of the prospective tools I had in mind was real time alerting in case of drastic drops eg ping doctor or relative. I think will have to be limited to the apps/tools that do support realtime.
Technically there is unsanctioned access (someone reverse engineered the real-time APIs [1] which I ported to Go). I think the FDA does not want easy access to real-time values so that folks can't easily recommend insulin dosing without oversight. I am personally of the opinion that it is our right to have programmatic access to the real-time data and do with it what we please.
replyWould love to get in touch to hear more about your long-term vision for the project!
>so that folks can't easily recommend insulin dosing without oversight //
replyIs there genuinely a consideration here beyond not allowing activity without paying money to the hegemony?
Insulin is lethal at higher dosages, so there is definitely an argument. My counter would be that someone who has to self administer this drug 5+ times a day should have the right to make determinations about dosing
