This is a weather forecasting application, that I have created to display weather forecasting information for the searched location. I have utilized & Integrated the Weatherstack, Mapbox API to this application.
This project was developed on the top of Node.js, integrating with Weatherstack and Mapbox API. Node.js is very popular among developers nowadays. By including express.js module to the node.js, gives featureful web applications and APIs.
The utilization of handlebars js provides semantic templates, fast execution, and give features to including JavaScript into templates. This project is merely my attempt to put something together based on the ideas put accross in Node.js course videos and documentation.
This project is deployed in Heroku. Please visit (https://nodejs-weatherforecast-app.herokuapp.com/) or click LIVE DEMO to preview the application.
In this project I have used Node.js(10.16.1), Express.js(4.17.1), Handlebars.js(4.1.1). I also integrated Mapbox API for getting the latitude, longitude of the searched location and Weatherstack API for getting weather reports.
This application is built under Node.js, Express.js. The postman for testing API request & response and VScode as an IDE.
Open the terminal and navigate to the project folder. Run npm i to install all the needed packages from the node package manager for the project and run npm run dev in the terminal. The server is started listing to the port 3000, then navigate to the browser and type the url http://localhost:3000 to view the application.
