# Prerequisites

Go programming language (version 1.16 or later).

An API key from WeatherAPI.

# Installation

Clone the repository and build the application: `go build -o `

# Usage

Before you can use the application, you need to set up your WeatherAPI key. 

Create a .env file in the project root and add your API key:

`echo "WEATHER_API_KEY=your_api_key" > .env`

Replace your_api_key with your actual WeatherAPI key from here - https://www.weatherapi.com/ 

You can now run the application: ./name of the build

By default, the application will show the weather forecast for Varna, Bulgaria. You can specify a different location as a command-line argument:

./name of the build London
