Weather App using OpenWeather API and Bootstrap

by Gavin Pili

(Generation :: Academy Xi | Junior Web Developer Program)

You can view the web app here: https://gavinpwd.github.io/weather-app/ This app was inspired by the painting of Caspar David Friedrich "Wanderer Above a Sea of Fog (1818)", awe-inspiring and genre-defining painting German Romantic art.

This weather web app was created using the following:

HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript Bootstrap v4.5.2 Unsplash API Google Fonts API

My Design Goals:

UI and UX should convey sense of fun and happiness A simple web layout with easy to use search bar Typography should be well-considered Strategic use of colours and icons Use of simple icons, bright colours and full screen image Show results like cards from left to right Mobile-friendly layout Consider using floating elements, transparency, opacity, shadows

My Coding Goals:

Use comments strategically Codes should be well organised and easy to read Utilise documentation from Bootstrap, MDN and W3CSchools website Reference any external code sources used Use at least one API as part of the project

Trajectory of this project:

This project was beyond the MVP requirement Resolve the Melbourne search issue - use a suggested list or geo-location API Adding a close button for each card result Add a compare, save and delete feature

Stretch Goal:

Create a Mobile app version that can be downloaded via mobile app store

Here is a sample screenshot of the web app:
