🌦️ Weather Forecast App (C++ with TypeScript Integration)

A powerful weather application built using C++ with TypeScript/Node.js integration to fetch real-time weather data from APIs. The application stores data locally for efficient access and provides comprehensive weather forecasting capabilities.

📌 Key Features

• 🌡️ Multi-scale forecasts (Hourly/Daily/Weekly)
• 📍 Location-based weather data
• 📊 Detailed metrics including:
  • Temperature (avg/min/max)
  • Humidity levels
  • Wind speed
  • Precipitation
  • Air Quality Index (AQI)
• 💾 Local data storage (JSON & TXT formats)
• 🔄 Location management system
• 📅 Custom date forecast lookup

🔄 Data Flow

1. TypeScript Fetcher (fetchWeather.ts):

   • Connects to weather API
   • Saves raw data to weather.json
   • Creates processed weather_data.txt for C++

2. C++ Application (main.cpp):

   • Reads from weather_data.txt
   • Provides interactive menu system
   • Displays formatted weather data

🚀 Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Node.js (v14+)
• C++ compiler (GCC, Clang, or MSVC)
• TypeScript (installed via npm)

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/deadshotofficial/weather-app-cpp.git
   cd weather-app-cpp

2. Install Node.js dependencies:

   npm install

3. Fetch initial weather data:

   npx ts-node src/fetchWeather.ts "Delhi, India" weather_data.txt

4. Compile and run the C++ application: Compile and run main.cpp using your preferred C++ compiler. or

    g++ src/main.cpp -o weather_app
    ./weather_app
