When a user enters a valid location into the search box, the current weather for that region is displayed. This app utilizes Express and Node.js for server-side functionality, and React for a dynamic front-end user experience.\n\n## Installation\n\nThis project is divided into two main parts: the backend (API) and the frontend (UI). Follow these steps to set up and run both parts of the application.\n\n### Prerequisites\n\n- Node.js\n\n### Cloning the Repo\n\n1. Open your terminal or command prompt.\n\n2. Clone the repository using Git:\n\n   ```bash\n   git clone https://github.com/arsy786/weather-dashboard.git\n   ```\n\n3. Navigate to the cloned repository's root directory\n\n   ```bash\n   cd weather-dashboard\n   ```\n\n### Setting up the Backend\n\n1. From the root directory, navigate to the backend directory:\n\n   ```bash\n   cd weather-dashboard-backend\n   ```\n\n2. Install the required Node.js modules:\n\n   ```bash\n   npm install\n   ```\n\n3. Set up the environment variables by creating a `.env` file in the `weather-dashboard-backend` directory with the following content:\n\n   ```env\n   WEATHER_API_KEY=\u003cYOUR_API_KEY\u003e\n   PLACES_API_KEY=\u003cYOUR_API_KEY\u003e\n   ```\n\n   WEATHER_API_KEY\n\n   - Register at [OpenWeatherMap API](https://openweathermap.org/api).\n   - Follow [this article](https://openweathermap.org/appid).\n\n   PLACES_API_KEY\n\n   - Register at [Google Places API](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/web-service/overview).\n   - Follow [this article](https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/places/web-service/get-api-key).\n\n4. Start the backend development server:\n\n   ```bash\n   npm run dev\n   ```\n\n   The backend server should now be running on `http://localhost:3001`.\n\n### Setting up the Frontend\n\n1. Open a new terminal or command prompt window.\n\n2. From the root directory, navigate to the frontend directory:\n\n   ```bash\n   cd weather-dashboard-frontend\n   ```\n\n3. Install the required Node.js modules:\n\n   ```bash\n   npm install\n   ```\n\n4. Start the frontend development server:\n\n   ```bash\n   npm run dev\n   ```\n\n   The frontend server should now be running on `http://localhost:3000`.\n\n### Accessing the Application\n\nAfter starting both the backend and frontend servers, you can access the web application by navigating to `http://localhost:3000` in your web browser. Ensure both servers are running concurrently to allow the frontend to communicate with the backend effectively.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Farsy786%2Fweather-dashboard","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Farsy786%2Fweather-dashboard","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Farsy786%2Fweather-dashboard/lists"}
