As a Type 1 diabetic, I need to continuously monitor my blood glucose levels. So I built a VS code extension that displays my blood glucose level in the status bar. This VS code extension is for those that use the Dexcom CGM sensors. The extension connects to Dexcom web services to retrieve the latest blood glucose readings. The latest readings are displayed in VS Code status bar. If you are or know any software engineers living with diabetes, this tool might be helpful.

Completely free and open source.

If you use Freestyle Libre CGM or Nightscout, you may be interested in one of these VS Code extensions I've previously built:
