We wanted to learn how to utilize an API, and we also wanted to learn how to implement it to create a functional website that any user can use in their daily lives.
Website: Client: Lookup a city in the USA using the city’s name and state Lookup a location in the USA using zip code Displays the weather of the location Displays an icon relating to the current weather Button to convert the temperature from Ferienghite to Celcius
We used the OpenWeatherMap API to retrieve weather data. This data includes the city name, zip codes, wind speed, humidity, atmosphere, and temperature. We constructed the web application using CSS, HTML, and JavaScript. The design was created using CSS and HTML is also compatible with mobile devices. We employed JavaScript to get access to the API and update the page with the requested information. We designed our code in a way such that we minimize calls to the API. The application is simple and easy to use.
Learning to use the API. The OpenWeatherMap API was an API that we had not used before, so we had to spend some time familiarizing ourselves with it. Since this is an interactive application, we needed to consider a multitude of situations, and handle the possible errors arising from those situations. We struggled with Git and keeping files consistent between multiple users.
We learned to use the OpenWeatherMap’s API. We build a functional and easy-to-use web. We practiced working with git and working with a team.
We hope to implement matching and animated backgrounds. Ambient Sounds that match the weather. Future Forecasts.
