The Wow (The Weather noW) is an Android application that allows users to check the weather in different cities. The application uses data from the OpenWeatherMap API to display weather conditions.
- Java Programming Language
- Retrofit (version 2.9.0)
- OpenWeatherMap API: The project uses the API version with "metric" units (degrees Celsius).

📱Main Screen: The app opens to a main screen where users can input the city name they want to check the weather for.
