Welcome to Tidepool's developer documentation
This guide will be your Obi-Wan Kenobi for all things Platform (Tidepool's API platform) and will run you through the how-to's of accessing, fetching and using your Tidepool data. But who is Tidepool? What is API?
We're so glad you asked.
Tidepool is a nonprofit organization committed to providing free software for the diabetes community to get the most out of their diabetes devices. An API, or application programming interface, is a tool that allows you to communicate with other applications, i.e. access your diabetes data by talking to your devices.

Awesome. Now that we're all caught up, let's jump right in!
