Resources¶
OpenAPS Documentation¶
The first place to start if you want to learn more about the underlying algorithm, is the extensive OpenAPS documentation. OpenAPS is the underlying algorithm that Trio implements to control blood sugar, with small modifications mostly pertaining to the Dynamic settings.
AndroidAPS Documentation¶
AndroidAPS implements the same OpenAPS algorithm with dynamic enhancements and maintains an extensive documentation for new users. Recommend if you have additional questions, you skim through its documentation for your answer.
Loop Documentation¶
Trio is not a fork of Loop. While their underlying algorithms are different, they share some parts of their code base. It is recommended that you take a quick glance in the Loop Docs for your issue, especially if it relates to pump usage and build errors. Many of these documents have been adapted from Loopdocs.
