react-weather-app's Introduction

Weather App - React Frontend - Showcase Project

Project Requirements

Build a React app to display weather information. The UI implementation should prompt for a location, and display the resulting weather.

Working Demo

https://react-weather-app-871a0.firebaseapp.com

Version

0.0.1

Instructions for usage

  • Navigate to URL
  • Start typing in your city name, and pick a result from the suggestions

Weather APIs

Implementation Caveats

  • The API keys are hard-coded in config.ts. Since there doesn't seem to be a way in accuweather to limit the keys to certain domains, In a true system, there would be a wrapper back-end API, where the API keys would be, so that they're not exposed to the front-end
  • The accuweather API only gives suggestions for cities, for example, Houston. Typing in Houston, TX does not return any results

Tech

Todo's

  • Add additional unit tests, specifically for the LocationSearch component
