Early preview build of MedBuds new stock system

An early preview build of our new stock system, planned to automatically update availability at individual pharmacies every 15 minutes (wherever possible). We right now expect to be able to display live information from at least 7-8 different pharmacies

From MedBuds X account for non-X users.

@Muiredach This is fantastic I seemed to of missed it originally. This is going to help us enormously

There's an awful lot of little technical hurdles, but nothing I can't work through - I've built a lot of 'data scrapers' over the years. We should end up being able to make a single unified formulary for the entire industry, and ensure the rest of the industry has an always-up-to-date copy too

Major progress this weekend,

First two automatic pharmacy formularies added to the site

Nothing will be publicly available for a week or two until further tests/checks are complete - and further formularies added.

Just a note on that, white text on black is horrendous for many migraine sufferers, I could not look at it. Black txt on white please. @Muiredach

There's a lightbulb in the top right that let's you change from night mode to day mode. If you are a psychopath.

I've gone from using light mode for the first few months to a point where I only ever use dark mode now as the light mode was giving me headache's in the end

My eye's hate light modes lol

I'm a migraine sufferer and black text on white background makes it way worse for me, dark mode all day long (lol)

Good job there's the option for both and having different accessibility / visual requirements is becoming more understood and normalised

If anyone reading this thread is also photophobic like me, or has any sensitivity to light, check out 'FL-41' lenses

If you have prescription glasses they can be done with the FL-41 tint for an outrageous 'gouge the disabled' price, otherwise they can be gotten more cheaply with blank lenses in more of a sunglasses fashion

The tint removes the blue light element and reduces the pain caused by light massively for me, I have been wearing them all waking hours for a year and expect to for the rest of my life - I still get migraines but far fewer since I got these

I second this chronic migraine sufferer and dark mode is needed at everything i look at on screen and sometimes font dimmed also.

I had my first migraine in 2018, I assumed it was a brain tumour. My left eye went completely blurred then psychedelic shapes appeared in the dark blur, bursting lights of triangles etc which felt like 20 meters away to my left is what I saw. I freaked and went to the doctor who told me to get an eye test as I work in IT and screen time. The optician herself had migraines and listened to my description, she told me it was an ocular migraine. She prescribed glasses with hardly any magnification just for computer screens, when you hold them to the light they have a green tinge from a green filter. I have never had a migraine since from a computer except when I have forgotten my glasses. Over the years I now also get them from strobing lights like when driving through a load of trees with sunlight behind them causing them to flash.

For me at the start of the internet pre my migraines whenever I looked at green text on a black background or white text on a black background the images fuses onto my eyes for a few minutes, I have to close my eyes to let the image clear, apparently this is quite common. I guess this was the warning sign for me.

When I saw @GrownHealth screen prints above I assumed these listing page would only be black for some reason, I did not know about the switch as my MedBud has always been white with black text.

Anyway migraines suck big time, so take @Lank72 advice and get some suitable glasses!

Edit: migraines are not part of why i am a MC user, not mentioned in consultations.
