Weather Widget
Weather Widget
Show current conditions and a short forecast for a place your users care about.
What it does
A compact widget showing current conditions and a few days of forecast for a chosen location.
How it works
- 1 Add this as a tile in the app's existing Customizable Dashboard Widgets rather than as a fixed element bolted into a layout, so users who do not want it can remove it.
- 2 Fetch the forecast on the server on a schedule and serve the widget from the app's own cache. Calling the weather source from every visitor's browser leaks the credential and multiplies the request count by your traffic.
- 3 Show the observation time alongside the reading, and reuse the app's Stale Data Indicator conventions so ageing weather looks the same as any other ageing data in the product.
