- Visualize weather metrics via space and colors

- Compare current/future conditions with weather you experienced the day before

- Understand/compare how conditions change throughout the day

WeatherSense started out as a hand-coded project: https://github.com/Leftium/weather-sense

- Would you consider this project a good example of how AI can be used to enhance coding?

- Claude helped implement many new features from the backlog, like 60-min precipitation forecasts

- Claude helped add some whimsical features: I only considered adding because AI experimentation is cheap:

* "Calm mode:" truly emphasizes how WeatherSense doesn't need numbers by removing/replacing all numbers from UI

* Dynamic background color based on sun angle (time + location)

Major inspirations:
