Ephemeral Journal App

This is a simple Node/Express app that uses the OpenWeatherMap API to access the current weather information for a given zip code and save it with a journal entry about the user's feelings. The entry is ephemeral--it will only display until you add a new entry or refresh the page!

Technologies: Node, Express, JavaScript, HTML, CSS, OpenWeatherMap API

Instructions

  1. Clone the repo and cd weather-journal

  2. Run npm install to install the node modules

  3. Sign up for an OpenWeather account and get an API key

  4. Add a file /client/config.js and add your API key in a config object:

    const config = {
  OPEN_WEATHER_KEY: '123yourapikey456',
};

  5. Run npm start to start the server

  6. Open the browser to http://localhost:3000 and try it out!
