WeatherNow

Description
WeatherNow is a simple webapp which displays the current weather conditions of a city.
Just enter the name of a city in the search bar and hit enter to get the weather details.
It shows the following details:
- Temperature
- Feels like temperature

- Weekly Highlights
Today's Highlights shows the following details:
- Maximum Temperature
- Minimum Temperature
- Sunrise Time

Things I learnt while building this project:
- Using Axios to fetch data from OpenWeatherAPI
- Building a custom weather fetching hook from scratch
- Using Moment.js to convert UNIX timestamp to readable date
- Realized that designing the UI before coding always speeds up the development process
