# odin-weather-app

A weather forecast app that uses OpenWeatherMap's API to practice asynchronous JavaScript & API data fetching.

This project allowed me to practice using the browser's `fetch()` command to do Cross-Origin Resource Sharing with an external API -- specifically the [OpenWeatherMap API](https://openweathermap.org/api). I used Promises and `async/await` to parse the data asynchronously utilizing the JavaScript Event Loop.

```JavaScript

async function getWeatherData(cityInput) {

  const response = await fetch(

    `https://api.openweathermap.org/data/2.5/weather?q=${cityInput}&units=metric&appid=${apiKey}`,

    { mode: 'cors' }

  );

  const weatherData = await response.json();

  return weatherData;

}

```

I need to improve on:

- writing clean code

- planning out projects before doing them

- writing code with browser load speeds in mind

These were the requirements in The Odin Project's [Project: Weather App](https://www.theodinproject.com/lessons/node-path-javascript-weather-app) site to serve as project specifications. Website aesthetic choices and implementation solely depended on me, the programmer.
