About Nightscout
Nightscout, also known as CGM in the Cloud, is used by people with diabetes and by parents of children with diabetes. It acts as a central store of blood glucose and insulin or treatment data for one person, so the CGM graph can be viewed from anywhere in a web browser.
A setup has three parts: a Nightscout site that stores and displays the data, an uploader that sends CGM readings to it, and optional follower devices. You can build the site yourself on a cloud hosting provider or pay for a fully managed Nightscout hosting service.
