# Weather Forecast and Solar Energy Prediction Application
This repository contains the solution for the recruitment task provided by Codibly IT Academy. The application is built with the following stack:
- **Backend**: TypeScript + Express
- **Frontend**: React + TypeScript + Next.js
## Project Overview
The application provides weather forecasts for the next 7 days and estimates solar energy production based on the forecasted weather conditions.
## Backend
### Features
- **Two API Endpoints**:
1. **7-day Weather Forecast**:
- Returns:
- Date
- Weather code
- Minimum and maximum temperatures
- Estimated energy production in kWh
2. **Weekly Summary**:
- Returns:
- Average pressure
- Average daily sun exposure time
- Extreme temperatures of the week
- General weather summary (e.g., "Rainy week" or "Dry week")
- **Calculation**:
- Solar energy production:
```
Energy [kWh] = Power [kW] x Sun Exposure Time [h] x Panel Efficiency
```
- Power = 2.5 kW
- Efficiency = 20%
- **Validation**:
- Validates latitude and longitude inputs.
- Handles errors from external API.
- **Data Integration**:
- Fetches weather data from the [Open-Meteo API](https://open-meteo.com/).
## Frontend
### Features
- **Weather Table**:
- Displays:
- Date (DD/MM/YYYY)
- Weather icon
- Minimum and maximum temperatures
- Estimated energy production (kWh)
- **Footer Summary**:
- Displays:
- Weekly extreme temperatures
- Average pressure
- Average sun exposure time
- General weather summary
- **Extras**:
- Automatically detects user location.
- Responsiveness and Dark Mode.
