About The Project

I've been doing some React Native training and decided to build this little weather app based on Aman Mittal's tutorial.

I used one of the React Native project templates (could have chosen one that was more minimal in hindsight) and have updated or refactored some of the code from both the template and tutorial as I came across a couple of errors (e.g. navigator.geolocation seems to be deprecated so I used expo-location instead).
