Development Philosophy:
The Diabetes Extender was written from the ground up, with the mindset that the application should try to use as little battery as possible (see website for details) and to use a minimum of mobile data, while providing the same look and feel for either the owner of the device, or clients who are viewing the data.


For the Nerds:
The Diabetes Extender is closed source. Unlike other open source projects, this application follows industry best practices, encapsulated and organized classes and methods, and is thoroughly commented. The code will remain closed until all features have been thoroughly exhausted.

Long range features:
I hope that this application becomes obsolete and that CGMs in general become obsolete.
