Create a weather web app that provides the current weather and projected forecast for either a chosen location or the user’s current location.

• I decided to use NextJS for this app, since it integrates a backend where the API key can be hidden from the browser/front-end, making the application more secure. NextJS also facilitates deployment with Vercel.
• This application takes a user input in the search bar (city or country name), and returns that location's current weather (temperature in °C and °F) and a 10-day forecast (average temperature), as well as other city details like country, region, continent and local time and date.
• Error handling is also implemented so that the application doesn't crash if the API returns a bad response. If no input is supplied, or if the input is invalid (invalid city or typo), a front-end error message is displayed to the user, and the user can re-type an input in the search bar. See the error demo below.

• NextJS with TypeScript
  • with ReactJS functional components
  • with the API logic stored in the back-end
• Sass (BEM) for styling
• Axios for request handling
• Vercel for deployment

Access the deployed application.
