I have a monitor hooked up to a headless server to passively display some
information on the console. I decided I wanted to add weather information to it,
so I created weatherman.
weatherman is a simple console widget implemented in node.js with the blessed TUI library. It displays the current weather for one or more configurable locations.
Currently I'm using wttr.in as a backend, which I'd like to move away from; the service experiences outages and the weather information itself seems to be unreliable. The blessed 👼 library is great, on the other hand — building the interface was completely painless and I'll probably use it again in the future.
This is also my first project built from the ground up using ES modules 🥳
