A taskbar app for displaying USGS magnitude 2.5+ earthquakes from the past day.

It mimics the [official page](https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/?extent=-89.76681,-400.78125&extent=89.76681,210.23438&map=false) on the desktop. The data is provided by the [USGS earthquake feed](https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/feed/v1.0/summary/2.5_day.geojson).

Seismic is offered free of charge, and is open-source.

Download the latest release for your platform [here](https://github.com/breadthe/seismic/releases).

- [ ] Timestamp for last feed refresh.

[](#known_issues)

## Known issues

- I have only tested this app on Mac (Intel). While there are builds for all platforms (Mac/Windows/Linux), I can't guarantee the latter two will work properly, especially the behavior around the taskbar and desktop notification functionality. Feel free to contribute to those builds.

## Contributing

Contributing is welcome, but I keep in mind that I might be slow to respond.

Contribution priority:

- [known issues](#known_issues).

- bug fixes (open an issue first, explaining the problem).

- platform-specific builds (make it work great on Windows and Linux!).

- features on the [wishlist](#wishlist).

- everything else (including new ideas).
