As I've been improving upon my skillsets with Javascript and server side programming, I decided to create an application that uses a server proxy that makes API calls to the infamous openweather API!
As you might have guessed, my predominant focus on this project was to setup a backend server to handle the client requests while hiding API keys. In addition, I also integrated a rate limiting feature on making requests and api caching.
This app is currently being hosted on Heroku, and the live version can be found on my Portfolio Website:

Pull requests are always welcome, and I'll do my best to do reviews as fast as I can.

My motivation was to build on my knowledge of Javascript and working on the backend, as well as increasing the potential for job opportunities as a Full Stack Developer.
