Core Specifications

  • Data Sources: Integrates with OpenWeatherMap (primary) and supports DarkSky (legacy).

  • API Requirements: Requires a free or paid OpenWeatherMap API key. For visitor auto-location (IP-based), an ipStack API key is required.

  • Performance: Features built-in caching (adjustable interval) and Lazy Loading to ensure weather data doesn’t slow down initial page loads.

  • Visuals: Uses high-quality SVG animated icons that respond to current conditions (day/night specific).
