Hey everyone, wanted to share a project I just finished. It’s a weather app, but I tried to push past the typical “fetch API, show temperature” tutorial project.
Features:
AI-generated natural language weather summaries instead of raw numbers
Dynamic backgrounds that change based on real weather conditions
City search with live suggestions as you type
Bookmark/favorite cities, persisted with localStorage
Stack: React + Vite, deployed on Vercel
Stuff that actually gave me trouble:
Debouncing the city search so it doesn’t spam the API on every keystroke
Duplicate city names across countries messing up search results
Bookmarks kept vanishing on refresh until I realized I wasn’t persisting state properly
Syncing background image changes with API response timing without a jarring flash
It took about 9-10 days total, mostly because I kept refactoring state management once bookmarks, search, and multi-city display all had to interact. Still learning, so genuinely open to criticism — especially on component structure, since that’s where I feel least confident.
