WordPress Plugin: Better Weather
Tech Used: PHP, JS, CSS, HTML
This is a really simple plugin that connects to Open Weather’s One Call API and displays the weather anywhere the web admin places the short code.
The plugin is really light and unfinished at the moment. I plan on adding more display options as time and interest allows.
To ensure that the API calls remain infrequent and nowhere near the 1000 daily calls necessary to exceed the free pricing tier, I limit calls to every 10 minutes and only when someone visits the site.
This is a small development project. For larger projects, check out Versatile Shipping, Quick Product Options, Secure Contact Forms, or the Texas Tax Calculator.
