This is a Hackathon Project where I implemented Weather Forecast application using Python with integration of OpenWeatherAPI.

TechGiG-Hackathon: Weather Forecast Application

Description

The Weather Forecast Command Line Application is a Python-based tool that provides users with accurate and up-to-date weather forecasts for any desired location worldwide. It utilizes the OpenWeatherAPI to fetch weather data and presents the forecast information in a user-friendly format through the command line interface.

Features

• Real-Time Data: The application fetches live weather data from the OpenWeatherAPI, ensuring up-to-date forecasts.
• Location Customization: Users can input their desired location (city name or coordinates) to retrieve weather forecasts specific to their needs.
• User-Friendly Interface: The application provides a simple and intuitive command line interface, making it easy for users to interact with and obtain forecast information.
• Reliable Data Source: Leveraging the OpenWeatherAPI, the project ensures access to reliable and accurate weather data, enhancing the quality and trustworthiness of the forecasts.

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com/prathmeshChaudhari05/techgig-project.git

2. Install the required dependencies using pip:

pip install -r requirements.txt

3. Obtain an API key from the OpenWeatherMap website. (https://openweathermap.org/)
4. Replace the placeholder API key in the weatherForecast.py file with your own API key.
