#Wedux
#Introduction
This application was created as a dive into using React with Redux. It allows users to search a zip-code or city across the world, and returns a five day weather forecast.
#Use Cases
The primary use case for this application is a quick-and-easy snapshot of the weather in a given location. The user searches a city on the home screen, and is then directed to a page with the weather for that location.
#Technical Overview
Stack/technology used in this project:
- HTML
- CSS
- Javascript
- React
- Redux
- Weather Underground API
- Webpack
- Component hot-reloading
Technical implementation:
- The homescreen searchbar uses the React-Select library to update the search suggestions as you type
- After selecting a city, Redux is used to call the Weather Underground API, which returns a five-day weatherforecast, as well as the current weather conditions
- The single-day and four-day forecasts are updated with the information returned from the API
