Left click tray icon to show/hide weather info window.
Double click to show/hide astral info window.
Right click icon for menu to change city, quit app or get back to this readme.
On weather window, you can click the title date to open forecast for your city in your default browser.
On astral window, click the title date to get to more info about moon phases.
On both windows clicking on the city name opens the prompt to change the city.
Data is updated on launch or when the city is changed and then automatically every twenty minutes.
Note: This app does not detect your location (Geolocation API is way too imprecise). After install you must manually change the default city to your own. The app will remember your city across restarts.
For the city input, you can use just a city name, a city name with country code separated by comma or city id number from openweathermap.org.
For example
dresden
dresden, de
// more precise
2935022
// never wrong city
are all valid inputs for the city of Dresden in Germany.
No umlauts: ä -> ae, ö -> oe, ü -> ue.
There's no minus or plus sign in the tray to keep the font size as big and clear as possible, so red color for over 0°C and blue for under.
The sun and moon information are calculated using sunCalc & lune.js and might not be entirely accurate.
