Weather Central

Description

Modern weather tracker app using the OpenWeatherMap API to get live local weather data.

Features

  • Simple UI inspired by iOS Weather app

  • Find the local time in your location, and weather with OpenWeatherMap API.

  • Easily export component into other projects

Technologies Used

This project was built in React with TypeScript, Node.js, and using the OpenWeather API. Currently deployed here on Netlify.

Development Process & Motivation

I wanted to create a simple modern weather interface. I modeled it after the iOS Weather app and made some slight changes.

Challenges & Solutions

The biggest challenge was actually blurring the background without affecting the text, so I had to learn about z-index and positioning in CSS.

Future Plans & Improvements

I plan on adding weather forecasts for the whole week, and backgrounds that change based on time and weather like the iOS app. I also want to add a way to change the location.
