From a tech perspective, D Sharp is built using Express, Node-Canvas for rendering Flot graphs, MongoDB via Mongoose and JQuery Mobile.
You can configure D Sharp to handle oral medications, insulin via pump or pen needle/syringe, etc plus the general logbook functions for blood glucose, blood pressure, weight, diet, etc.
I think the most unique feature is that if you are taking insulin, D Sharp can calculate the insulin dose required to cover the carbs in a meal. It will even track your active insulin and adjust to avoid "stacking" multiple administrations, etc. In this way it provides a lot of the features of an insulin pump and makes them available to someone who is just using a pen needle.
