Clarify colors of appointment status

Currently "showed up" and "scheduled" are both green. Changing "scheduled" to a different color (like blue) would make the difference between "showed up", "scheduled", and "no show" more distinct at a glance.

While it’s a good idea, we are trying to minimize using color as a differentiator because of the accessibility guidelines. We have went ahead and added colorblind mode to help with those having trouble with using the color-coded statuses.

Along the same note, it would help to have color coding available in general so I can indicate a difference in service. For example, some of our tutors are online only for some hours and I would like to indicate that difference.

I was just about to put this in as a suggestion! This would be so helpful, especially when needing to cancel ALL appointments in order to easily see which ones are future appointments and past appointments in order to cancel.
