Weather App

View the demo here

A basic weather app, built with HTML, CSS, and Vanilla JavaScript. It was originally part of a one-day 'hackathon' project as a bootcamper at The School of Code full-stack developer bootcamp but has gone through many changes.

It uses two third party APIs: Open Meteo for weather data, and Open Street Map for geolocation.

By using these two APIs, the user can look up their current location or search for any location in the world and receive real-time weather data.

Objectives

The original objectives of the project were:

• Build an app leveraging a third-party weather API.
• Work in a team using the Driver-Navigator/pair programming approach.
• Practice planning before jumping into coding.
• Deliver an MVP within a tight timeframe.

Technical Requirements

• HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
• External API: Utilize a public API for real-time weather data.

Refactoring

This project was originally intended as a simple one-day project but I enjoyed it so much I took the time to add much improved styling and features:

• Completely overhauled the styling, colors and UI.
• Added a full imageset (sourced online) of weather illustrations.
• Added the ability to update location with day and night mode based user's location.
• Added the ability to switch from Celcius to Fahrenheit.
