Nimbus: Real-time Weather Intelligence

Nimbus was born from a desire to create a weather application that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. Tired of cluttered weather sites, I built Nimbus to provide essential weather data at a glance.

Key Features

• Live Weather Updates: Fetches real-time data from the OpenWeatherMap API.
• Dynamic Backgrounds: Visuals that change based on current weather conditions.
• 7-Day Forecast: Precise predictions for planning your week.
• Location-based Search: Easily find weather data for any city globally.

Technical Story

I chose Svelte for its reactive nature and small bundle size, which ensures the app feels snappy. Tailwind CSS allowed for rapid UI development, focusing on a clean, "glassmorphism" look that complements the weather theme. The integration with OpenWeatherMap API served as a robust exercise in handling asynchronous data and error management in a reactive framework.
